Scolds, reprimands (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rebukes

I believe this is a double definition.

'scolds' is the first definition.
('rebuke' can be a synonym of 'scold')

'reprimands' is the second definition.
('rebuke' can be a synonym of 'reprimand')

(Other definitions for rebukes that I've seen before include "Admonishes, chides" , "Strong reprimands" , "Expresses sharp disapproval" , "Admonishes sharply or severely" .)
