What does REVOLT mean in Scrabble?
verb
To rise up against a ruler or government, or to feel strong disgust at something.
The word covers two ideas that share one root, a turning away. In politics it means an uprising by people who refuse to go on obeying a regime, and as a noun it names the uprising itself. In feeling it describes a stomach or conscience that recoils from something foul or cruel, and in that sense the thing that causes the reaction is said to revolt the person. It came into English from French and Italian words for turning or rolling back.
