er..........you can find two overlapping words inside each of them? hockey=hock-key, decoration=decor-ration, lambaste=lamb-baste, misspelling=miss-spelling, signature=sign-nature, taciturn=tacit-turn, threshold=thresh-hold?

They can all be separated into two separate words, i.e. Hock and Key, as reported in Marilyn Vos Savant's column in yesterday's Parade magazine.
Please come up with your OWN question next time.

This is a wild guess but all of the words have another word at the end. Like hoc...key deco....ration mis...spelling sig....nature taci...turn thres...hold. I'm probably wrong...
