What does WHITE mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Of the color produced when all wavelengths of visible light are reflected together, as in fresh snow or milk.
White is technically the presence of all colors of light reflected at once, unlike black, which results from the absence of reflected light. In everyday use white describes countless things, from paper and clouds to paint and clothing, and it often carries symbolic associations with purity or surrender, as in a white flag. White is also used as a noun for the color itself and for the clear part of an egg. Beyond color, white can describe pale skin or hair, or combine with other words, as in white noise or white lie.
