able-bodied
Aren't both grammarian and answerable derivates of the basic words?
(NB: In case someone wish to invoke the previous example of adding "able" to a word: personable means "attractive", and has thus quite a different meaning from "person". That's not the case of answerable)

education
Sorry about that.I didnt see GC's word.QD's word will be disregarded,but QD will not be penalized,and he can play again,while some others will be penalized,I think.
grammarian will not be accepted.Check the previous not accepted words for the reason.Im pondering about answerable...Though it can mean responsible,in that form it is derived from answer to someone...So I guess its not accepted.

an answer can be a solution for something while being answerable can be being responsible for something, different enough?
grammar is described like this in a dictionary: a systematic treatment of the elementary principles of a subject and their interrelationships or it can be about language, so that makes different meanings again
I'm not going to start a discussion like with the gam-gamer problem last round
defending myself in 1 post seems more then enough to me
