What does VERT mean in Scrabble?
noun
heraldry
The colour green, in the language of heraldry.
Heraldry names its tinctures in French and keeps them apart from ordinary words, so a shield is never green but vert, and in a plain engraving the tint is marked by diagonal lines instead. English forest law borrowed the same word for something related but different: the vert of a wood was its living cover, and taking it without right was an offence with its own courts.
