What does ARMLET mean in Scrabble?
noun
A band or ring worn around the upper arm, or a narrow inlet of the sea.
An armlet usually names a piece of jewellery or an identifying band worn above the elbow, whether decorative, ceremonial or a mark of rank such as a military armlet. The same word also has an older, quite separate use in geography, where an armlet of the sea describes a slim channel of water reaching into the land like an arm. Historians and jewellers therefore both use armlet, though almost never for the same object. Older armlets were sometimes worn as protective charms as well as ornaments, blurring the line between jewellery and body armour.
