About TI
TI is a valid word in the official Scrabble dictionary (US), the UK Scrabble Dictionary and Words with Friends (ENABLE).
Everyone knows that Ti is the symbol for Titanium. Well, almost everyone—or maybe just chemists and jewelers. It’s also one of the notes you hear Maria sing about in The Sound of Music. You remember that scene, right? She takes the kids gallivanting all over town and teaches them how to sing using the seven basic notes of the major scale. Just an average day in pre-WWII Austria.
More about TI
TI is also a popular brand of calculator and a fairly popular rapper, though both are actually abbreviations for their full names.
In Scrabble, only the music note’s meaning counts, and it’s worth 2 points.
