Truncate last letter, get new word (Posted on 2023-02-17) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Consider an English word. We will still have a valid English word, when the last letter is removed from it.
Clues for the word pairs will be furnished, with the shorter word following the longer word.

Example: Begin --> Heavenly body
Answer: Start --> Star

CLUES:

  1. Water pitcher --> Sheep
  2. Platform phase --> Deer
  3. Tub --> Flying mammal
  4. Desert mammal --> Arrived
  5. Inclined surface --> Sheep
  6. Slow-moving mammal --> Small opening
  7. Marine mammal -> Large body of water
  8. Type of lizard --> Body covering
