What does ASWOON mean in Scrabble?
adjective
literary
In a state of fainting, or overcome with strong feeling.
The word aswoon suits stories of fainting heroines and also lighter use for being overwhelmed with delight. It pairs the a- prefix with swoon in the same way that afire pairs with fire, so it is found after a verb rather than before a noun. Today it reads as deliberately florid, often with a smile.
