What happens when you just run $('tr:nth-child(odd)').addClass('odd'); on the
web console? Does it correctly select the elements you are looking for ?

"word is not defined" is a little vague, do you think that's happening in
jQuery, coffeescript, or your code? (these are rhetorical questions to point
you in the right direction). Also, is that a Rails exception (I'd assume not)
or a Javascript error you see in the console (or an error during coffeescript's
compile?)

So... it's a little hard to follow you're debugging steps, are you saying that
the code you are executing is actually working to add the class to the selected
elements?
If that's the case, remove your code altogether and see if the problems is
still happening. If it is, you have a different problem unrelated to the
$('tr:nth-child(odd)') selector
