Definition: Scoring is like having your favorite snack and then you secretly hope it's the last one before someone gets it, so that you can eat their prize.
"Scoring" means scoring a certain number of points in a game or activity; for example, if you score 10 on a test, you pass. Scoring has some weird slang and jargon, like "scoring goals," which is like setting up stakes, but it's actually a phrase for something more complex. It can also mean making fun of someone's effort by saying they're scoring too low. Here's an example sentence using the term: "Scoring low on my test? My friend was like, 'I guess I don't need this much effort to pass.' So now we all know that score is just a number!"
