What does TACIT mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Understood or implied without being openly stated or put into words.
A tacit agreement exists because both sides act as though they have settled something, even though neither one has spoken the terms aloud. Silence, a nod, or simply continuing to behave a certain way can all signal tacit approval, which makes the word useful whenever consent or understanding is inferred from actions rather than declared outright. Because a tacit arrangement is never written down, it can also be harder to enforce or prove than an explicit one.
