Hey again Raedwulf, your treatise regarding the addition of prefixes/suffixes to reverse words is interesting. My favoutite (which I've use for years) is 'mantle', meaning to put something together,(as distinct from dismantle). Eg "That clock yer dad dismantled is still in pieces, he'd better mantle it again" :-)
