"Anagram" is a word in ENGLISH
Literally, the letters of a word read backwards, but in
its usual wider sense, the change or one word or phrase into another by
the transposition of its letters. Thus Galenus becomes angelus; William
Noy (attorney-general to Charles I., and a laborious man) may be turned
into I moyl in law.
To anagrammatize.
The only thing harder than leaving show business is coming back.
