What does UNMET mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Not achieved, fulfilled, or satisfied, as of a need, requirement, or expectation.
Unmet describes a requirement, need, or expectation that was never brought about, so the gap between what was wanted and what happened stays open. The word attaches most often to abstract nouns such as need, demand, expectation, or deadline rather than to physical objects. Reports and policy writing use the phrase unmet needs to flag a shortfall that planners still have to address, which keeps unmet common in formal and administrative English.
