 \boxed, Hannan?!  It only draws a box...

Indeed.
The best solution IMHO is the AMS math substack command: type \substack in

use \subarray if you need more columns.

 Thanks, that works.

In case, you want both words written with the same size, write inside
the respective box the following command:

\scriptstyle

and then the word.
