Scrabble players rejoice: 5,000 new words large and small are on the way in dictionary update

575 Madison Avenue ScrabbleNEW YORK –  To Scrabble fanatics, big gifts sometimes come in small packages.

The word “te” as a variant of “ti,” the seventh tone on the musical scale, is a hardworking little gem among 5,000 words added to “The Official Scrabble Players Dictionary,” out Aug. 11 from Merriam-Webster.
