What does MORALE mean in Scrabble?
noun
The level of confidence, enthusiasm, and shared spirit felt by a person or group, especially in the face of difficulty.
Morale is used mostly of groups under pressure, such as soldiers, sports teams, or workers, where confidence and willingness to keep going matter as much as any single skill. High morale keeps a group working together even when conditions are hard, while low morale can spread quickly and undermine performance. The word came into English from French, distinct from the older adjective moral, though the two are closely related.
