What English word is nine letters long, and can remain an English word at each step as you remove one letter at a time, right down to a single letter. List the letter you remove each time and the words that result at each step.

Another solution is:
CLEANSERS
S-CLEANSER
R-CLEANSE
E-CLEANS
S-CLEAN
E-CLAN
L-CAN
C-AN
N-A
This is actually a game I used to play when I was bored as a kid, building up as long a word as I could from adding a single letter each time. Turns out there are loads of solutions!
