Pull-Apart Synonyms

Here’s a very challenging word scramble game, for those who wish
to put their vocabulary and spelling skills to the test.

Instructions: Separate the letters in each line, without rearranging

the letters, to spell two synonyms. Work carefully. Some letters may
appear to belong in one word, but because of their position in the
row of letters, they belong in the other word.

Example: G C R L A U T C S H P

Answer: GRASP - CLUTCH

Now it’s your turn to pull apart two synonyms in each set of letters. (If you get stuck, use
the hints on the next page.)
