Dear Friends

Last night I was doing this crossword puzzle where I got stuck on one clue.

Accept without approval (8 letters)

What do you think it could be? The person first to answer would be given a big round of applause.

Tom

PS: Now I know the answer. :lol:

That's what I understood, nami.

Tom, would you like to tell us one of the 8 letters (and where it is in the word) as a little clue?
