Anagram Games

April 1st, 2008 · No Comments · Calvin

Found lots of anagram exercises on the web from Stanford and Duke in particular, but found one that is a simple game that is pretty easy to understand:

  • Devdaily. This one is a little complicated, but basically it shows you a scrambled word and you have to figure out how to unscramble and turn it into a real word.

    There are also lots of completed programs on the web and even whole sites devoted to it. That’s because anagrams are essentially what Scrabble players need. Take a jumble of letters and turn them into potential words and you can just google:”Anagram” to see literally dozens of games.

  • Wordsmith.org. There is a whole site devoted to anagrams and a more advanced program that takes an entire phrase and converts it.
  • Andy’s Anagram Solver Has a really big 132,000 word dictionary. See how many ways there are to scramble Lakeside! into French.
