What does EVINCE mean in Scrabble?
verb
formal
To show or make clear that one has a particular quality, feeling or attitude.
To evince something is to let it be seen through behaviour or words, rather than merely to claim it. People evince interest, reluctance, courage or surprise, and the word fits best in careful, written English. It comes from Latin, where the sense was close to conquering or proving a point beyond argument, and that older force of proof still colours the modern use.
