This is a Closed Compound Word ( A single non hyphenated or non seperated word made of 2 seperate words).




Made up of 2 words say A and B



When reversed it is also a closed compound word. So both AB and BA are
closed compound words.



The word AB results from the word BA



It has 5 consonants.




Words only from a standard Webster or Oxford dictionaries please. No proper nouns or slang words.



It is a simple word so please do not go to computers and check all compound words!



There may be 2 solutions. Second one a little stretched.



Hint




It fills the blanks in the following



That ________ must have come from a _______.



For the second solution



They make them do a lot of ________ in that ________.

  • When you say "reversed", do you mean the whole word is reversed or we exchange the two sub-parts. For example, would the word "doghouse", when reversed, become "housedog" or "esuohgod" ?

Here's a simple 5-consonant possibility...




When you're having a sleepover, you might oversleep. Hence one results in the other.




A couple more to match that new template:




That gunshot must have come from a shotgun.


That houseguest must have come from a guesthouse.




And for that second template, maybe:




They make them do a lot of housework in that workhouse?




Other words I could think of that don't quite fit:




An upstart could come from a startup company, but I think the correct form is start-up.


There's also overturn and turnover, but they're too much alike.


A birdsong comes out of a songbird, but it has 6 consonants.


And a houseboat could come out of a boathouse, I guess, but it has just 4 consonants. Though you could always cheat a little and pluralize it. ;)

      @DEEM I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean by "AB results from the word BA." Like, in a sentence? As in, "you can get an AB from a BA" should be a valid thought pattern?

    • Welcome to Puzzling.SE! I'm afraid that's not what OP means by "reversed" - they mean that when you swap the order of the two words in the compound word, you will get another compound word. That is not the case with your word.

      Welcome to Puzzling.SE! The puzzle is asking for real English words that could, say, be found in a dictionary, but yours don't seem to fit that. Your examples are only valid as separate words, not as closed compound words. Why not take the tour for an easy badge?

            @DEEM What do you mean by "comes from"? That would be a grammatically correct sentence for any of these pairs.

            • Welcome to Puzzling.SE! I'm afraid that's not what OP means by "reversed" - they mean that when you swap the order of the two words in the compound word, you will get another compound word. That is not the case with your word.
