What does GLOUT mean in Scrabble?
verb
archaicdialect
To look sullen or scowl, to frown in a sulky or discontented manner.
An old writer who described a character to glout at someone meant that the character wore a heavy, resentful frown rather than simply looking sad or serious. The word overlaps with sulk and scowl, but glout puts more stress on the visible, drawn-down look of the face than on the feeling behind it. It survives today mainly in older literature and regional dialect rather than in everyday modern speech.
