What does REMOVE mean in Scrabble?
verb
To take something away from the place where it is, or to get rid of it altogether.
Remove is one of the most flexible verbs in English: you can remove a coat, a stain, a name from a list or a person from office. It was borrowed from Old French and goes back to the Latin movere, to move. It is more formal and more exact than words like take off or get rid of, which is why instructions and legal texts favour it.
