What does MUTINE mean in Scrabble?
verb
archaic
To mutiny, to rise up in open rebellion against those in command.
Mutine is an old spelling and form of mutiny, used when sailors, soldiers, or subjects rose against the authority meant to govern them. Shakespeare used the word memorably in Hamlet, describing an inward mutine, a kind of rebellion that happens within a person conscience rather than on the deck of a ship. Writers reaching for an antique or dramatic tone sometimes still choose mutine over the modern mutiny, especially in poetry or historical fiction. The related noun form once named the rebellion itself or the rebel who led it, though modern writing keeps that sense mainly for mutiny and mutineer.
