What does PRONTO mean in Scrabble?
adverb
informal
Quickly, promptly, or right away, without delay.
English borrowed pronto from Spanish and Italian, both of which use it to mean quickly or at once, keeping the same brisk, informal sense in its new language. It usually appears as a command or a demand for speed, often at the end of a sentence for emphasis, as in get it done, pronto. The word carries a casual, sometimes urgent tone that a more formal word such as immediately would not, which is why it shows up mostly in speech and informal writing rather than official documents.
