What does WIDISH mean in Scrabble?
adjective
informal
Fairly wide, though not very wide.
Widish is built from wide and the casual ending -ish, which softens a description so that it claims only an approximate amount. A widish river is broader than a stream but nowhere near a great estuary, and a widish smile is more than polite without being a grin. Writers use widish when they want a loose, conversational estimate rather than a measurement.
