What does WRATH mean in Scrabble?
noun
literary
Extreme anger, often accompanied by a desire for revenge or punishment.
Wrath is a stronger, more formal word than anger, and it carries a sense of righteous or overwhelming fury rather than mild irritation. The word appears often in religious and classical texts, most famously in phrases describing the wrath of God, and it has carried that weighty tone into modern literary and dramatic writing. Everyday speech tends to prefer anger or fury, so wrath now signals seriousness or a deliberately grand, old-fashioned style.
