What does WARMUP mean in Scrabble?
noun
A period or routine of gentle preparation carried out before the main activity begins.
A warmup is the easy first stage of something harder: athletes stretch and jog, musicians play scales, and electronic devices run for a short time until they work properly. The word also names the sweat suit worn over other clothes for this purpose, and the stretch before a broadcast when an audience is put in a good mood. Some writers still prefer the two-word spelling warm-up, but warmup is accepted in word games.
