What does WOODSY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
informal
Having the look, feel or smell of woods and forest.
Woodsy describes anything that brings a forest to mind, whether a cabin in the trees, a scent of pine and damp earth, or a flavor in cooking that tastes of bark and herbs. It is a friendly, slightly casual word, more at home in magazines, reviews and everyday talk than in scientific writing. Writers like it because it suggests a mood as much as a place. The ending -y turns the noun woods into a quality that things can carry with them.
