What does AMORT mean in Scrabble?
adjective
archaic
Lifeless, spiritless, or utterly dejected, as if drained of energy or hope.
A person left amort seems drained of energy and spirit, sunk into a low, dispirited mood as though something inside them had died. Older writers used amort to describe someone crushed by sorrow, disappointment, or defeat. The word joins the French phrase a la mort, meaning to the death, which explains its lingering sense of deathlike heaviness.
