What does WAMBLE mean in Scrabble?
verb
regional
To move in an unsteady, rolling way, or, of the stomach, to churn and rumble with nausea.
Wamble is an old dialect verb that covers two related pictures: a swaying, wobbling walk, and a stomach that heaves and gurgles. It still turns up in regional speech and in word lists, though most speakers would reach for wobble or churn instead. The same sound-picture of rolling and rumbling runs through both senses.
