What does WOOPS mean in Scrabble?
verb
informalBritish
To vomit, used especially of a young child.
Woops is an informal, mostly British way of saying that someone, typically a small child, has been sick, softening a plainer term for what comes up into something closer to nursery language. Parents and caregivers reach for it when talking to or about little ones rather than in clinical settings. The same spelling also stands in for the exclamation whoops, so whether woops names this reflex or serves as a small cry of surprise depends on how the sentence is built.
