Someone commented about "Only Connect" last night where they discussed Kangaroo words...

i.e. words that have smaller versions inside them such as "Honourable" has "Noble" inside it, "Masculine" has "Male" and "Blossom" has bloom - each smaller word has a similar meaning to the larger one.

While writing an email to an ex-colleague about a recent restructure at work I realised that "Consultants" is also a Kangaroo word!
