The rule is: 

You should describe a word in English, and other members of English Club should try to guess what you are talking about. Then you should reveal the answer after a period of time

Everyone can set questions and everyone can guess

When the others guessed wrong, the question setters can (and should) give some hints

Like the participants guess the synonyms of the goal word, the question setters can give the hint "synonym"

This word is an adjective, used to describe very small things.

But it has a suffix that usually becomes a part of a noun.

 
啊啊是谁都对: Of course it can also be a noun.
