What does MUTINY mean in Scrabble?
noun
An open revolt against those in command, especially by soldiers or sailors against their officers.
A mutiny is more than grumbling: crew or troops openly refuse orders or seize control from their superiors. Famous cases at sea, such as the one aboard the Bounty, have made the word a symbol of rebellion against harsh command. It comes through French from a Latin word for movement or uprising. In a looser way people speak of a mutiny among employees, players or party members when a group turns on its leaders.
