What does OUTSIT mean in Scrabble?
verb
rare
To sit for a longer time than someone else; to outlast another person by remaining seated.
Outsit is used when people compare how long they can remain seated during an event such as a meeting, a vigil, or an endurance contest. It can describe patience as well as physical endurance, since outsitting someone often means waiting them out rather than moving faster. The word appears in reports of long negotiations or committee sessions, where one side simply refuses to leave before the other. Outsit follows the familiar out- pattern seen in outlast and outwait, all describing endurance contests.
