What does NOTARY mean in Scrabble?
noun
A person with legal authority to witness the signing of documents, confirm that they are genuine, and take sworn statements.
People visit a notary when a deed, a power of attorney or an affidavit must be proved authentic, and the notary adds a signature and usually an official stamp. In many countries on the European continent the notary is a senior legal professional who drafts contracts and property transfers, while in North America the role is lighter and often handled at a bank counter. The word comes from the Latin for a scribe, which fits the early job of recording what others said and did.
