Playing With Words
Did you know there’s such a thing as a kangaroo word? It’s a word that contains a smaller synonym tucked right inside, just like a baby kangaroo in its pouch. For example, encourage hides urge, and masculine contains male. Can you think of any other kangaroo words? Share it in the comments!
Here are a few more fun ones:
- Honorable hides noble.
- Illuminate includes lit.
- There is cocoa in chocolate.
- Rest is within respite.
