Words. Join New Ones To Redo The Original

Please excuse this long preamble. The point of this game is to weld combinations as another way of spelling/saying words. For instance, for the word "foreign" you might have far and in. I want you to put a pair of already existing words together in order to forge approximations of familiar words. But the spelling has to be different in both parts from the original word. I would like you to do only two syllable words.

Please do not use proper nouns for the original words or the pairings.

In the pairings --each must be legitimate words --not just sounds.

Now their might be several different ways of approximating the sound of the original word. As I said, I want you to do only two syllable orginal words. Some words may have three syllables but many may pronounce them with just two.

I hope I have covered enough of the ground rules. Here's trusting I don't have to add any more rules.

The following are some I came up with. They are not in alphabetical order as you will see.

Cannot : kin not
Cement : see meant
Believe : bee leave
Battle : bad ill
Mystery : miss tree

Barely : bear lee

Okay, let's see how you'll do with this exercise.

ITL, you did not follow my rules which I clearly spelled out in my OP. I had specifically said to use only two syllables. In seven of your items you used three syllables.

In one place you did not use a legitimate word :ain.

And in another case you didn't even try.

Sorry. Your score is 40%. You have failed.

 

Tissue : tis shoo

Issue : is shoe

Surgeon : sir gin

Salty : saw tea

Ruin : rue inn

Music : mew sick

Career : caw rear

Useful : ewes fool

 

You must play bu the rules ITL. You have received credit for only two out of your seven examples.

Your score is 28.571%. You have slipped from your prior score of 40%. Come on. I know you can do better. Just pay attention.
