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 THEM in the left-hand column below could swallow the word ORE in the right-hand column to form THEOREM (theOREm). The words in the right-hand column are in random order. Can you match the eaters with the "eatees" and determine the new words?
THEM END
PIQUE ALLOW
ANY KNOT
EIGHT CARES
SWING ORE
DEFER LIMO
FORD YES
BANE WAR
Answers:
THEM - ORE - - - THEOREM
PIQUE - CARES - - - PICARESQUE
ANY - LIMO - - - ALIMONY
EIGHT - YES - - - EYESIGHT
SWING - ALLOW - - - SWALLOWING
DEFER - END - - - DEFENDER
FORD - WAR - - - FORWARD
BANE - KNOT - - - BANKNOTE
