What in the world is that?

• Anagrams are words or phrases that are formed
  by rearranging the letters of another word or
  phrase.

Just So You Know )

• Some special anagrams don't even require
  rearrangement! You just add/remove spaces and
  punctuation! For instance,
• have you ever noticed that The IRS always thinks
  that your stuff is theirs?

Roots!

• The word ANAGRAM comes from the roots ANA,
  meaning new, back, or again, and GRAM, meaning
  letter(s).

• P.S. Maybe these 2 roots should be on our quiz on
  Friday!

Anti-grams

• Anti-grams are anagrams whose interpretation are
  considered ironic, or opposite of the subject.
  How would one describe FUNERAL? I don't think the
  right answer would be REAL FUN.

More Special Anagrams!

• Some anagrams are created perfectly by reversing
  the order of the letters. Mommy, I really SAW
  him! He WAS right here!

Why would they be in literature?

• You might be saying, "Sure they're fun in games
  like scrabble, but how and why would they be used
  in literature?"
• When a poet uses anagrams, it is genius and
  spontaneous!
• Also, anagrams often carry hidden messages. Clint
  Eastwood-gt Old West Action. They are really funny
  and creative.
