What does WROTH mean in Scrabble?
adjective
archaic
Full of wrath; deeply and visibly angry.
Wroth is the old adjective form standing beside the noun wrath, and it was once the ordinary way to say that someone was angry. It survives mainly in older translations of scripture, in poetry and in writing that deliberately imitates an earlier style of English. A modern writer reaching for wroth is usually signalling formality, humour or archaism rather than describing everyday irritation.
