What does SANITY mean in Scrabble?
noun
The condition of having a healthy, rational mind and the ability to judge and behave in a sound way.
People usually notice sanity only when it is threatened, as in talk of keeping it through a stressful season. The word also stretches to sensible judgement in general, so a plan can be called a sanity-saving move. It comes from the Latin word for health, and the same root sits behind sane and sanitary.
