What does CAVEAT mean in Scrabble?

noun

A warning or condition attached to a statement, agreement or offer, pointing out what must be borne in mind.

Caveat is Latin for "let him beware", and the word kept that sense when it passed into English law. In a courtroom a caveat is a formal notice asking that nothing be done until the person who lodged it has been heard. Outside the law it has softened into any reservation, as when a recommendation arrives with a caveat about cost. The famous maxim caveat emptor, "let the buyer beware", puts the idea in a nutshell.

How CAVEAT is used

Common in business, legal and everyday writing; a caveat often follows "with the caveat that".

The offer came with one caveat about the delivery date.
She lodged a caveat to stop the sale going ahead.
My only caveat is that the figures are still provisional.
The review was glowing, though it carried a small caveat.
Every forecast needs a caveat about how fast things can change.
