No minimum, on --> no works

Bea Does the reverse word have to match exactly if it is contained intact in the new word? I am thinking about Nat - tan, but the book I have found for tan has the word in plural (tans). Would this work?

No, that would not work. It needs to be the resulting word.

That was what I was afraid of...OK, back to the drawing board.
