I don't know if this topic exists already on this side, if it does then I apologise for copying, and for my ignorance.

This is just a fun little game, where you see how many new words you can get from the original word. The original words MUST be ten letters long, and the new words you pull from that word MUST be three or more letters. Example:

ABJECTIONS

Abject
Object
Cat
Ion
Tone
Stone
Set
Net
Jet
(etc. etc until you can see no more new words or you are out of options. Plurals are allowed.)

When you have pulled as many new words from the original word, post a new TEN LETTER word for the person below to get as many new words from, and so the game goes on.
The first word for the person below me:

REVOLUTION
Revolution

Tin
Nut
Lotion
Revolt

Finding a word with 10 letters is more difficult that one might think. I easily found words with 8, 9, 11 and 12 letters, but had to search for those with 10.

And for those of us who are insomniacs, this is a good word exercise to add to the late night word games used to try and go back to sleep.
But I'm making a list of them now.

Next word:

Existentialism is too long, Tiger, the word should have 10 letters. See the originl post.

Those are some rather specific rules but okay.
