I don't think that's an english word. At least I'm not familiar with it, a search on dictionary.com didn't come up with anything, except something it thought I was trying to put in, and searches on both Yahoo and Google brought up pages of different languages.

You should be able to edit yourself before someone else posts. If someone posts after you, you can't go back.

You wouldn't accept bleachers, would you now? But I think you should...

bleachers: a typically roofless section of low-priced, tiered seating, usu. made of boards, esp. at an athletic field or stadium.

I believe in science and that science can explain everything.
Because God has made it all work in such a beautiful way...

That changes the meaning of the word completely and so it should be accepted.

I'll continue from that.

If it was the only meaning of the word,Id accept it,true.But:
1. Usually, bleachers. a typically roofless section of inexpensive and unreserved seats in tiers, esp. at an open-air athletic stadium.
2. a person or thing that bleaches.
3. a container, as a vat or tank, used in bleaching.
So,sorry but no.

So because bleachers can mean a person who bleaches, it's not accepted? Excuse me, but if that's the case, I think I have a few dozen words from earlier rounds we might disallow as well...

Personally, I think it should be the poster of the word who should decide its meaning.

We already had this discussion before,thats why the rule is what it is now.All of the meanings of the new word have to differ from all of the meanings of the previous word if its used as a whole.It was different when the bonus was 3 points for the whole word,but it changed because of the game->gamers.
