What does MUTUAL mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Felt, done, or experienced equally by two or more people or groups toward one another.
A feeling or action is mutual when it runs in both directions at once, so that each side gives and receives the same thing, as in mutual respect or mutual distrust. The word also describes arrangements in which two or more parties share equally in something, such as a mutual agreement or a mutual fund owned collectively by its investors. English borrowed mutual from French and ultimately Latin, where the root meaning centered on exchange between people. A mutual friend is a slightly different case, meaning a person known to two others rather than a feeling shared between them.
