What does REWIN mean in Scrabble?
verb
archaic
To win again; to regain something that had been lost or given up.
Rewin combines the prefix re- with the old verb win to describe recovering a victory, possession, or advantage a second time. The word belongs to an older layer of English and appears mainly in historical or poetic writing rather than in ordinary modern speech, where regain or win back are used instead. Its archaic past-tense forms, rewan and rewon, reflect the irregular conjugation that win itself once had in earlier English.
How REWIN is used
Archaic; found chiefly in older or deliberately old-fashioned writing rather than in current English.
