Each word in the left-hand column can swap a single letter with one of the words in the right-hand column to create two new words. For example, the title words LETTER and SWAPPING could exchange the L in LETTER and the W in SWAPPING to form WETTER and SLAPPING. In the words ANNUAL and CHORES, the U in ANNUAL and the E in CHORES could be swapped to form ANNEAL and CHORUS.
