The synonym is known as a 'joey'</p> <p> </p> <p>For example: </p> <p> </p> <ul> <li> <p> <strong>MA</strong>SCU<strong>L</strong>IN<strong>E</strong> - male</p> </li> <li> <p>C<strong>H</strong>ICK<strong>EN</strong> - hen</p> </li> <li> <p>OB<strong>SE</strong>RV<strong>E</strong> - see</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>BLO</strong>SS<strong>OM</strong> - bloom</p> </li> </ul> <p> </p> <p>Some words have more than one 'joey' , such as FEASTED which has a greedy 3 - fed/ eat/ ate.</p> <p> </p> <p>To qualify as a kangaroo word the joey word has to have its letters in the same order within the kangaroo word and all the letters cannot be adjacent. So ENJOY / joy, for example, wouldn't qualify as a kangaroo word.</p>
