Synograms

A synogram is a pair of words which are synonyms with the added rule that they are also anagrams (plus or minus one letter.)

For instance, 'bush' and 'shrub' are synonyms with only the letter 'R' added to 'bush' to make it an anagram of 'shrub'. Another synogram pair is 'ludicrous' and 'ridiculous'.

What other synograms can you find?
