What does REVISE mean in Scrabble?
verb
To read over and change something in order to improve or correct it, or to study again before an exam.
Writers revise drafts, governments revise estimates and editors revise whole editions of a reference book. In British English the word also means to go back over school material before a test, which Americans would call reviewing or studying. It comes from a Latin verb meaning to look at again, so the idea of a second look is built into it.
