What does UNEASE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A feeling of anxiety, discomfort, or vague worry, especially about something that has not yet happened.
Unease describes a mood rather than a single event, and people often feel unease without being able to name exactly what troubles them. The word combines the negative prefix un- with ease, so unease is literally the opposite of the calm, comfortable feeling that ease names. Writers reach for unease when dread would be too strong and worry too specific, since unease covers a lingering, low-grade sense that something is wrong.
