i'd been struggling with these two words in study for a while but a connection suddenly dawned on me. I don't know why it took so long for the penny to drop:
AAAKPPU - KAUPAPA = KAU + PAPA
AAAKMMU - MAMAKAU = MAMA + KAU
You can remember which one has the KAU before it and which one after by the phrase "Mamas and Papas". Mama first, Papa last - at least that's how my mind works.
I only have these in my cardbox as I have all 4 vowel 7s. I guess I'll have to get through about 20,000 scrabble games until I ever get to play one.
Only one other word takes KAU as either a prefix/suffix. It's a suffix and it's a non-bingo.
