What does HEADY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Strongly affecting the mind or senses, exciting or intoxicating, or acting rashly without caution.
A heady perfume or wine is strong enough to feel almost dizzying, and a heady atmosphere, such as early success or sudden freedom, can feel just as overwhelming to the mind. Writers use heady to describe moments of intense excitement, like the heady days after a victory, when good news seems to arrive constantly. The word can also describe a person acting heady, meaning impulsive rather than careful.
