What does FLEET mean in Scrabble?
noun
A group of ships, aircraft, or vehicles that operate together under a single command, owner, or organization.
A naval fleet might include warships of several different types moving and fighting as one coordinated force, while a company fleet could simply mean the vans or trucks it keeps on the road for deliveries. The same word once described swift movement itself, and traces of that older sense survive in the literary phrase fleet of foot, meaning quick and light on one's feet. Modern usage keeps the two ideas separate in practice: a fleet as a collected group of vehicles is by far the more common sense today. Businesses now speak of managing a fleet the same way navies once spoke of commanding one.
