plural of submission
"The deadline for all design submissions has been extended by two days due to the weather delay."
In plain English: Submissions are things that you turn in to someone else for them to look at or grade.
"The manager reviewed all the employee submissions before making final decisions."
Derived from Latin submittere, this plural noun combines sub- (under) and mittere (to send), originally meaning things sent under or placed beneath another's authority. It retains the sense of acts of yielding to a superior power or offering something for consideration.
