Fun Stuff: Fun With Anagrams
Acording to Dictionary.com, the definition(s) of Anagram are:
an·a·gram /ˈæn
This is a fun website and I enjoyed spending way too much time trying it out.
an·a·gram /ˈæn
əˌgræm/
Show Spelled [an-uh-gram] noun, verb,-grammed, -gram·ming.
–noun
- a word, phrase, or sentence formed from another by rearranging its letters: “Angel” is an anagram of “glean.”
- anagrams, (used with a singular verb
) a game in which the players build words by transposing and, often, adding letters.
–verb (used with object)
- to form (the letters of a text) into a secret message by rearranging them.
- to rearrange (the letters of a text) so as to discover a secret message.
Origin:

1580–90; prob. < MF anagramme < NL anagramma.
Have fun making or playing with anagrams at www.wordsmith.org/anagram/index.html. This site is free and will make several screens worth of anagrmas from whatever word, name or phrase you type in. There is also an advanced search function where you can specify the number of responses, the maximum number of words, a specific word to be included and even the maximum number of letters in words.
There is a great section of anagram trivia called Odds n' Ends. Here's a sample:
- The word "anagrams" is an anagram of "ars magna", Latin for "great art".
- The word stifle is an anagram of itself.
- Japan's former capital city (Kyoto, A.D. 794-1868) and present capital city (Tokyo) names are anagrams of each other.
