...to make a 5-letter word.
An example of what I mean: the word 'exorcise' is an 8-letter word that can have any of 2 letters added to the end of it to make a 9-letter word: 'exorcised' or 'exorcises.'
First best/correct answer gets 10 points and a thumbs-up. And even if your word is different from mine, you'll get the points. But I'm curious to see if there are any 'wordsmiths' out there. Good luck and good hunting!

Aw. heck, I can't do this. I had the same words going as I saw on another answer with the "s" words, so that was no good; and it wasn't very good in the first place. This is Hard! A star for you...
