Sorry for not getting back sooner. Ima, good guess but not quite. Analesia's wild guess was actually closer! (crazy coincidence!) Hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride is a chloride used in a lot of shampoos. :D

 

Here is the next of my words that you have to guess: (I think a few more people might know this one but i'm not sure.) again, no looking it up.

The word is tuberculosis

It's a disease. I don't know much about it, but the active form can be fatal. There's also an inactive form my friend has which just means you have to take a lot of medicine.

What about...abudefdef! Does anyone know what that is? Please don't look it up. I only know it because I'm reading my dictionary, but it's a great word.

Oh, yes! That's how I learned abudefdef! I adore that word. Well, it wasn't technically given to me, but I found it while studying; I'm reading my dictionary now.

You mean bob as in "it continued to bob on top of the water" or as in "his name was Bob?" I'm sort of guessing the second one...

Anyway, 'cat' is a better word than 'Bob'.
