What does LIVID mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Extremely angry; also used to describe a dark, bruised bluish-grey colour.
When someone is livid, their anger has gone past ordinary irritation into something visibly intense, often shown in a flushed or reddened face. The word's older sense refers to skin discoloured by a bruise, a bluish-grey shade close to the colour of lead, and the two meanings share the same root idea of a strong physical reaction. In modern speech, the anger sense is by far the more common of the two.
