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 ARTERY in the left-hand column could swallow the word ILL in the right-hand column to produce ARTILLERY (artILLery). The words in the right-hand column are in random order. Can you match the eaters with the "eatees" and determine the new words?

ARTERY         GAME
CRY                 RANT
ORAL              IF
LINT                ANGER
FORTY            HER
WARY             ILL
TINE               DIN

Answers:
