GIVE AND TAKE V
Credit: Idea - Pamela Wylder
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 new words naming items that belong to the same category. For example, given the word pair NAIL - SUBLET, you would transfer the T in SUBLET to NAIL and anagram the results to form LATIN - BLUES - two types of music. 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.
