What does TEETER mean in Scrabble?
verb
To move or stand unsteadily, rocking or wobbling as if about to fall.
Teeter describes the wobble of something balanced right at its limit, whether that is a child on a seesaw, a stack of boxes, or a decision that could go either way. The word also gives its name to a see-saw itself in the compound teeter-totter, still common in North American speech. Figuratively, a person or a situation can teeter on the edge of a decision without moving at all physically.
