What does FERVID mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Burning with strong, eager feeling; passionate or zealous.
A fervid speech, prayer or supporter shows feeling that is intense and openly displayed. The word comes from the Latin for boiling, and the older, literal sense of glowing heat still appears in poetry. It is close to fervent, but fervid often hints at feeling that runs a little hot or too strong, while fervent sounds steadier and more admirable.
