Note
A regular plural, made by adding -s to the agent noun, and it carries every sense the singular has. Usually that means people who dance, for pleasure or for a living. In euphemistic use it can mean strippers, and in obsolete slang it named thieves who climbed across housetops and entered through garret windows. Capitalized, the singular is Santa's second reindeer or a surname; those are names, not this plural.
