What does EULOGY mean in Scrabble?
noun
A speech or piece of writing that praises a person highly, most often delivered at a funeral.
The word comes from Greek roots meaning good speech. A eulogy is usually given by a relative, friend or colleague, and it dwells on the character and achievements of someone who has died. The tone is warm rather than critical, which separates it from an obituary that simply reports the facts of a life.
