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 CAROL in the left-hand column could swallow the word USE in the right-hand column to form CAROUSEL (caroUSEl). The words in the right-hand column are in random order. Can you match the eaters with the "eatees" and determine the new words?

CAROL              THE     
SEATED             MINI
PROSE               SET
COAL                 PAR
INNATE             USE
CASTE               CAR
BREAD              TOP
DISH                  RIM
SLIGHT             LOSS

Answers:

CAROL - USE - - - CAROUSEL
SEATED - PAR - - - SEPARATED

COAL - LOSS - - - COLOSSAL
