What does UNMIX mean in Scrabble?
verb
rare
To separate substances or things that have previously been combined or mixed together.
Unmix describes reversing the process of mixing, so that ingredients, colors, or ideas that were blended are pulled apart again into their original, separate parts. The word is formed by adding the negative prefix un- to mix, and it is used when a mixture must be undone rather than simply diluted or changed. Cooks, chemists and writers reach for unmix when a blend has gone wrong and the components need to be recovered separately. It remains a marginal word next to more common alternatives like separate, but it appears often enough in casual and technical writing to be recognisable.
How UNMIX is used
Rare outside informal or technical writing, where separate or divide are the more usual choices.
