'SCRIBBLE' can be a piece of careless text +/or drawing while 'DRAW' is only drawing? Is it? In that way sometimes 'scribbling' can be used as a substitute for 'drawing'? Thank you for your attention.

1I think there's writing and there's drawing, but doing either carelessly can be scribbling; "I scribbled a note". "I found a scribbled drawing."– David GarnerCommented Apr 3, 2015 at 9:05

It can also be used self-deprecatingly: "That? Oh, that's just one of my scribbles."– Andrew Leach ♦Commented Apr 3, 2015 at 9:08

Thank you both! Now I think I understand. 'Scribble' is a word that hovers over both writing and drawing.– viery365Commented Apr 3, 2015 at 9:09

Scribble usually refers to text, while a "doodle" is a pictorial scribble.
