"Скрэббл" ("Крестословица") Товарный знак настольной игры в слова производства компании "Маттел" Mattel. Состоит в том, чтобы фишки с нанесенными на них буквами алфавита расставить в виде слов на разграфленной доске. Игрок набирает очки в зависимости от количества и "стоимости" использованных им букв. Изобретена в 1930-е А. Баттсом Butts, Alfred M., запатентована в 1948 и получила широкое распространение. В 1972 была создана Национальная ассоциация любителей игры в "Скрэббл" National SCRABBLE Association, насчитывающая около 15 тыс. членов. Ныне - вторая по популярности настольная игра после "Монополии" Monopoly game. Российский аналог - игра "Эрудит". Тж. SCRABBLE
