What does WOMAN mean, and how is it scored?

WOMAN usually means an adult female human. The definition also covers female humans collectively, and it can describe a female person in a broader fictional or nonhuman context. A further sense is a wife, fiancée, or girlfriend.

The 10-point Scrabble face value is easy to check letter by letter: W contributes 4, M adds 3, and O, A, and N contribute 1 apiece. That makes WOMAN a steady scoring play rather than a word built around an especially costly tile; a premium square can change the total.

How does WOMAN fit word games and nearby words?
