Take the word and go through it using a for loop assigning each character to a char variable. The use system.out.print to put the words where you want them:
System.out.print(" char1+char1+char1+char1+
char2+char2+
char3+char3+
char4+char4+char4+char4 ");
This will print something similar to your example. Comment back if it doesn't work or if you don't see what I am saying....
