Pyramid words are words which start at 2 letters but can be
extended to 7 letters and beyond. For example take the word loofahs, we start
with lo, next we get to loo, followed by loof, loofa, loofah and loofahs. Thus
by knowing loofahs we get to know a total of 6 words.
Other examples include:
Abasers, Amenders, Amusers, Barbers, Bingers, Chained,
Chiasmal, Daledhs, Divests, Erasers, Fasties,
Godsons, Hookahs, Jambees, Jamboks, Kaingas, Kinases, Lapsers, Maliced,
Mentors, Nursery, Parkiest, Poleyns, Reeders, Reposes, Singers,
Skaters,Tapetis, Teasers, Ureases, and Woosells.
There are some reverse pyramid words too. Take the word
drooped for example, we start with ed, then ped, then oped, then ooped, rooped
and finally drooped. Other examples include:
Aemules, Afeared, Borates, Cleared, Demures, Escapes,
Glaired, Hamates, Lemures, Mananas, Penates, Retapes, Scraped, Testates,
Upreach, Vacates, Whooped, Yslaked and Zananas.
