What does HUBBY mean in Scrabble?
noun
informal
An informal word for a husband.
Hubby began as playful baby-talk and kept that same slightly childish, affectionate edge even once grown adults started using it about their own husband or partner. Greeting cards, social media captions, and chatty text messages reach for hubby far more readily than any piece of formal paperwork ever would. Some people find the diminutive charming and others find it grating, but either way it signals a relaxed, familiar tone rather than a neutral label.
