A turnabout is a sentence where two words are used one way in the first part of the sentence, but then flip roles in the last part of the sentence.

Example: You might RACE for a TRAIN on the way to work, then on the weekend, TRAIN for a RACE.

Your challenge is to find turnabout words that can complete these sentences:

On the way home, I __1__ on a __2__way, then at home, I __2__ on my __1__way.

Sending something by __3__ is called a __4__ment, but freight sent by __4__ is called __3__go.

With an opponent, you can __5__ in a __6__, but to your significant other, you can give a __6__ in a __5__.
