You have got to believe me I'm telling the truth......

We played a game yesterday in Science. It was to help us learn new science words for our topic on Materials. Each group had a science word. They found out what it meant and wrote it down. Then they thought of two made up meanings. Next, the rest of the class had to guess which one was true and which ones were made up.
Can you guess which is the true meaning?
Brittle
1) The smell of fresh air and grass.
2) To fill a plastic bag and pop it.
3) Hard but likely to break or snap.
Absorbent
1) a drop of water that rises
2) when a material soaks up liquid easily
3) a material that is made from glass
Buoyant
1) able to float
2) how to say hello in Greek
3) a boy ant in love with a girl ant
Opaque
1)You cannot see through it
2)It is black fire
3) It's a crime
Durable
1)To control a robot
2) Strong and likely to last
3) To blast into space
Saturated
1) On saturday we have fun
2) Drive around Saturn
3) Soaking wet
Please post comments telling us what you think is true.
Please post your own science words for this game. You could use transparent, waterproof, flexible, elastic, dull, hard, strong, shiny, magnetic, aerodynamic and streamline.
