Definition An anagram is a rearrangement of the letters of one word or phrase to form another word or phrase. Often the results are highly amusing and give deep insights into the text being anagrammed! 11/18/2018

Examples A very simple example is rearranging the letters of "Evil" to get "Vile". More advanced examples include rearranging "Clint Eastwood" as "Old West action.” 11/18/2018
