What does EPEE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A fencing sword with a heavy, triangular blade and a large guard, used to score hits on any part of the opponent's body.
In competitive fencing the epee is one of three weapons, alongside the foil and the sabre, and it is heavier and stiffer than a foil because a touch with the epee can land anywhere on the body rather than only on the torso. The word comes from the French for sword, and epee bouts are scored purely on who lands a hit first.
