What does SASSY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
informal
Bold, cheeky, and full of spirited confidence, often in a way that is playful or mildly impudent rather than truly rude.
Sassy describes talk or behavior with an edge of back-talk to it, the kind a witty child or a confident performer might use without meaning real disrespect. American English popularized the word from the earlier saucy, and it now covers everything from a sassy remark in an argument to a sassy outfit chosen to stand out. The tone is usually approving or affectionate rather than critical, unlike a harsher word such as insolent.
How SASSY is used
