substantivo

   load the dishwasher

   Plus, there are about a thousand things that also could, or should get done in that time: a load of laundry, loading the dishwasher, tidying the kitchen, picking up a gagillion toys and blankies off the ground, restocking the change tables.

   Conditions inside dishwashers not only enable selected fungal species to survive, but also promote the selective enrichment of particular polyextremotolerant fungi that can tolerate low and high pH, temperatures up to 60°C or 80°C, occasional dehydration and high organic loads, high concentrations of NaCl, and mechanical stress due to water ejectors.

2. 2

   Someone who washes dishes, especially one hired to wash dishes in a restaurant.

   The chefs never cooked before, the cashiers never cashiered before, the dishwashers never dishwashed before, the waitresses never waitressed before, and the managers never managed before.

3. 3

   A European bird, the wagtail.

   The country-people say that the "tinner," that is the "dishwasher" or water-wagtail, is scarcer than it was before the blizzard, which must have caused the death of tens of thousands of birds. They call it the tinner, because it builds its nest in the mouth of the old mine-shafts.

4. 4

   A bird, the restless flycatcher (Myiagra inquieta).
