What does MISSY mean in Scrabble?
noun
informal
An informal, sometimes mildly scolding way of addressing a young girl or woman, especially one seen as bold or presumptuous.
Missy is typically used by an older speaker toward a girl who has acted cheeky, stubborn, or out of turn, as in not so fast, missy. Unlike the polite title miss, missy carries a light note of correction or amused exasperation rather than plain respect. It rarely addresses adult women except in a deliberately old-fashioned or teasing way.
