Is'nt Edsel a proper noun though?

t-shirts

Sorry E,but tzar->tzarina is not allowed,and neither would be king->queen if it could be connected somehow.

I can sort of understand why tzar-tzarina don't go, but not king - queen? Sure they can't be connected, but they and similar pairs might very show up in the same round. A king and a queen are two different things, and two different words.

[DaemianLucifer]

foot-binding

Sorry to disappoint you(well,not really,more like glad ),but that rule takes effect from the next round on.Also,Ill be banning compound words in that one

They are not different things because they are just male and female kinds of a same title.

Is banning compounds such a good idea? I mean, then the round will definitely end every time somebody posts endings and so on...

edit: You may ban compounds such as foot-binding or dwarf-tossing, because even though they are known phenomena, they are not acutal words* (i.e. in the dictionary). However, some compunds are actual words that can only be written as a compounds, kangaroo's-foot for instance.

*)This can also mean that your last word was not valid, even in this round.

[Gaidal Cain]

They are not different things because they are just male and female kinds of a same title.

In that case, I claim right of usage because they're two different chess pieces. So there. And I hope you only mean compunds as in words that use a hyphen...

[eekstah]

And I hope you only mean compunds as in words that use a hyphen...

That's what I presumed. See my edit in previous post.

[Gaidal Cain]

Agreed. Though Kangaroo's-foot (which is an awfully unenglish way of writing) can be written "Kangaroo paw" instead.

[Corribus]

bindingly

edit: king and queen are two different words, not that I see how it matters here - you can't form one off the other anyway.

No, they are not. Insects for example often have queens, but no male equal, a king. In monarchies hereditary rules and status may differ between kings and queens (Norway for example have both a king and a queen, but they are not equal in status). So there are many differences to the meaning of the words beyond mere gender. And also what GC said.
