What does JITTER mean in Scrabble?
verb
To move in small, quick, uneven jerks, or to behave nervously.
To jitter is to shake or twitch in tiny rapid movements, as a nervous person does or as a loose machine part does. Engineers also use the word for a signal that wobbles slightly in timing, so that a picture or sound is not perfectly steady. The noun form, usually in the plural as the jitters, names a state of anxious nerves, and the whole family of words seems to imitate the feeling of trembling.
