Word of the Day

Hi everyone
It is that time again! Today �s word is: (drumroll please)
ruction
As always, no dictionaries, no posting definitions until everyone has had a chance to guess. Intellligent and not so intellignet guesses are the only way to play!

Can I say right from the off, Lindsey, that this isn �t a particularly uncommon word where I come from (it �s quite often used in the plural: causing �ructions �). Having said that, the alternate meaning is �an online bidding sale site based in Moscow �. |

It may be easy for you native speakers! But not for me, I have no clue..... Some activity, e.g. crowding at the store entrance on the big sale day?

I �d say this is a situation where you have two rival bidders at an auction who are in fierce competition with each other as in:
�The ruction between the two bidders increased the value of the object by $10,000. � |
