In the pair CHAIR : HCARI the first two letters change places with each other and so do the last two, while the middle letter stays where it is. Complete the analogy: TABLE : ?

In TABLE the T and the A change places to give AT, the middle B stays put, and the L and the E change places to give EL, so the answer is ATBEL. ELBAT is the whole word written back to front, ATBLE swaps only the first two letters, and TABEL swaps only the last two.
