Big Words to small words

Try to find words within the long word, see how many shorter words you can find. You may even find one using all the letters!

I will try to post a new word every few days but anyone can post one if we run out of words!

I think 8+ letters should work each time
We'll see if it works!

Here is the first:
Lepidoptera
Example: dope

Re: Big Words to small words

Do you mean where the letters of the small word are in the order they appear in the big word?
Or just using the letters in any old order?



E.g. In the SAME ORDER as they appear in the word, I can see lop, pop, era, pit, dot, pie, doe, pea and tea, lee, lea, led, pip, pipe, Pope, dope, dote, leer, lip
