derivation

I found that צימוד נפחת means:
צימוד נפחת – במילה השנייה יורדת אות: נאסר – סר.
And:
צימוד נפחת: מילים דומות, שמס' העיצורים בנצמד השני או השלישי קטן באות אחת או יותר ממס' העיצורים בנצמד הראשון.
Examples: אבכה- אכה; קלשוני - לשוני
Most of the references I found relate to medieval poetry (השירה העברית בימי הביניים).
