CAN YOU add letters at the start and end of each of the above words to form a new five-letter word in each case? Of course you can. But can you do it in a way that the initial letters, in the order they occur, spell out another word, and the final letters can be arranged to spell out something of the same type as the initial letters? (Answer tomorrow)
