Answer 1

You should read up on Requests in Laravel: https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/requests#accessing-the-request
You need to pass that to your controller
public function postSaveedit(Request $request) {
$input = $request->input();
$foo = $input['foo'];
$bar = $input['bar'];
$baz = $input['baz'];
}

Answer 2

In Laravel 5.2 you can use request() helper method to solve your problem...
This is how you can do it...
Routes file should look like this (be sure that this route should be of post type)
Route::post('/myurl', 'Controllername#postSaveEdit')->name('postSaveEdit');
Form file should look like this, also please specify the input field names in the form so that you can grab them in the the controller by their specified names (like - title, meaning - see below code)...
<form class="form-horizontal" action="{{ route('postSaveEdit') }}" method="POST" role="form">
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-lg-3 control-label">Title:</label>
<div class="col-lg-8">
<input class="form-control" name="title" value='{{ $words->first()->title }}' type="text">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-lg-3 control-label">Meaning:</label>
<div class="col-lg-8">
<input class="form-control" name="meaning" value="{{ $words->first()->meaning }}" type="text">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-md-3 control-label"></label>
<div class="col-md-8">
<button class="btn btn-primary" type="submit">Save Changes</button>
<span></span>
<input class="btn btn-default" value="Cancel" type="reset">
</div>
</div>
</form>
and controller should be like this...
public function postSaveEdit() {
// The inputs variable contains all your form's inputs in the form of array...
$inputs = request()->all();
/*
$inputs = array(
'title' => 'title_value',
'meaning' => 'meaning_value'
)
*/
// Wheareas you can also get them by using 'get' method on request method like this
$title = request()->get('title');
$meaning = request()->get('meaning');
}

here u go
Form
you have to add method to your form + names to your inputs
<form class="form-horizontal" role="form" method="POST">
<!-- Add csrf token -->
{!! csrf_field() !!}
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-lg-3 control-label">Title:</label>
<div class="col-lg-8">
<input class="form-control" value='{{ $words->first()->title }}' type="text" name="input1">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-lg-3 control-label">Meaning:</label>
<div class="col-lg-8">
<input class="form-control" value="{{ $words->first()->meaning }}" type="text" name="input2">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-md-3 control-label"></label>
<div class="col-md-8">
<input class="btn btn-primary" type="submit" value="Save Changes"/>
<span></span>
<input class="btn btn-default" value="Cancel" type="reset">
</div>
</div>
</form>
controller
Use Word; // at the top of the class
public function postSaveedit(Request $request) {
$word= new Word; // if you are creating a new record
$word= Word::find(1);// if you are updating a record
$word->title = $request->input('input1');
$word->meaning= $request->input('input2');
$word->save();
return view('home.blade.php');
}
Routes file
Route::get('/myurl', 'Controllername#postSaveedit');
