Extractions: Page Index Home CV Math ... Legend I started running this site some years ago. Unfortunately, business and moving kept me busy so that this page has not developed as much as I wanted. Even worse, it seems that my time budget will also be tight in the future. Hence, only a slow growth of this page can be expected. Hopefully, my labour on this site will be backed by countless comments, hints, and corrections. (I also appreciate improvements and corrections of my English texts which may contain some expressions appearing strange to a native writer. ;-) Send them all to jzuther@gmx.de Index of This Page Collections of Links to Word-Related Sites Formal Word Play Anagrams Palindromes ... Miscellaneous Collections of Links to Word-Related Sites Formal Word Play 'Formal' word play means operations on text that don't refer to the semantic contents of the text in the first line. The operation of anagramming a piece of text is purely formalistic. Nevertheless, to find good anagrams (funny or strange sounding ones) one has to be selective upon a possible semantic content of the anagrams. For example, 'ars magna' is an interesting anagram of 'anagrams', whereas 'mgrnsaaa' is just stupid.
