Each word in the left-hand column can "eat" one of the words in the right-hand column to produce a new word - without any re-arrangement of letters. For example, the word EIGHT in the left-hand column could swallow the word YES in the right-hand column to form EYESIGHT (eYESight). The words in the right-hand column are in random order. Can you match the eaters with the "eatees" and determine the new words?

EIGHT            APT    
BUT                URN
HOSE              YES
TIP                  ONSIDE
PRICE             YOU       
CURE             ACT     
CRATE           THOU

Answers:

EIGHT - YES - - - EYESIGHT
BUT - YOU - - - BUYOUT
HOSE - THOU - - - HOTHOUSE
TIP - URN - - - TURNIP
PRICE - ACT - - - PRACTICE
CURE - APT - - - CAPTURE
CRATE - ONSIDE - - - CONSIDERATE
