What does MOODY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Given to sudden or unpredictable changes of mood, especially toward gloominess or sullenness.
A moody person can shift from cheerful to withdrawn with little warning, which makes their behaviour hard for others to predict. The word also describes atmosphere rather than people, so a moody painting or a moody piece of music can feel brooding, mysterious, or melancholy without any literal change of mind. Both senses share the idea of shifting, hard-to-pin-down emotion.
