What does UNARM mean in Scrabble?
verb
archaicliterary
To take weapons or armor away from someone, leaving them unable to fight.
Medieval writers used unarm both for stripping an enemy of weapons in battle and for the more peaceful act of a knight removing his own armor after a fight or a journey, with a squire often helping to unarm his lord. The word has largely dropped out of modern English, surviving mainly in translations and retellings of medieval romance, where a knight might ask to unarm before resting. Modern writers reaching for the same idea usually say disarm instead.
