In each pair of words below, remove a letter from one word and add it to the other. Then re-arrange the letters in both words to form two new words naming items that belong to the same category.
For example, given the word pair RENEGE - GROAN, you would transfer an E from RENEGE to GROAN and anagram the results to form GREEN - ORANGE - two colors. The transferred letter may come from either word. [As a solving hint, the categories that the two anagrammed words belong to are given below the clues. Using the hints significantly reduces the challenge of the puzzle.]
