Utter Meaning
Some players struggled to solve the puzzle because the letter formation meant there were too many word options. However, some struggled with today's challenge because they were unfamiliar with the word. The word is not particularly common in everyday life, so what does the word utter mean?
The dictionary defines the word utter as an adjective meaning 'complete or absolute.' For example, you could say, "Charlotte stared at her in utter amazement'.
The word can also be a verb meaning, 'to say something or make a sound with your voice'. For example, you could say, "She sat through the whole meeting and didn't utter a word".
