What does SPEEDY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Moving, acting or happening quickly and without unnecessary delay.
The word speedy can describe a runner or a vehicle, but it is just as often used for things that are done or delivered promptly, such as a speedy reply or a speedy recovery. It carries a friendly, approving tone, and people use it as a wish: they hope for a speedy return or a speedy resolution. It is a little less technical than fast or rapid and sounds more at home in everyday speech and in polite letters.
