What does WARTY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Covered with or resembling warts; rough and bumpy in texture.
Warty describes a surface marked by small, hard raised growths, whether on skin, a toad's back or the rind of a vegetable such as a gourd. Naturalists often use warty to describe the rough hides of certain animals, including the warty pig and various toads whose bumpy skin gives useful camouflage. The adjective can also apply figuratively to any surface that looks rough and uneven rather than smooth, such as an old warty tree trunk. Because it is built directly from the noun wart plus the ending -y, its meaning stays close to the visible bumps it describes.
