What does AXIOM mean in Scrabble?
noun
A statement accepted as true without proof, used as a starting point for reasoning or a system of belief.
An axiom is a principle so basic that it is taken as true from the outset rather than proved from something else, forming the foundation on which a whole argument or system rests. In mathematics and logic, axioms are the starting assumptions from which theorems are derived through careful reasoning. In everyday language, the word has widened to describe any belief or rule so obvious that people accept it as self-evident.
