Method

How to Find an Anagram

By hand it comes down to three moves. Past seven or eight letters the solver is faster, and it can also tell you there is nothing.

  1. Sort the Letters LISTEN becomes EILNST. So does SILENT. Two words that give the same sequence are anagrams, without exception.
  2. Place the Rare Letters First A Q, an X or a Z narrows the field so hard that it almost names the word on its own.
  3. Know When to Stop Five letters allow 120 arrangements, eight allow 40 320. And most words have no anagram at all.

Frequently asked

What People Ask Us

What Is an Anagram?

An anagram is a word built from exactly the same letters as another, each used the same number of times. LISTEN, SILENT and TINSEL are anagrams. A word that reuses only part of the letters is not one.

Do Accents and Capitals Count?

No. The solver reduces every letter to its plain form before comparing, so CAFE and CAFÉ are treated alike. Hyphens and spaces are ignored, which lets you search a compound name.

Why Does My Word Have No Anagram?

That is the case for most words. Out of 239,364 current words, 76,757 share their letters with another. The page then offers the words one letter away and the shorter words built from the same letters.

The Same Letters. Another Word.

A strict anagram uses exactly the same letters. LISTEN, SILENT and TINSEL share the same letter signature. The engine compares that signature against the dictionary and returns only exact matches.
