Does anyone know if there is a word for words that have the same length and constituent letters, but are not anagrams, such as bee and ebb, and aloof and offal.
I received an email from Peter Hewkin today who suggests the word magrang (a magrang of anagram) for such words.
Do you have other suggestions?
Can you think of other examples?
length(aloof) = 5
length(loaf) = 4
(It’s a requirement that each word have at least one duplicated letter)
Indeed – it should be offal rather than loaf.
As for other examples:
benign and ebbing
staff and fasts
mermaid and married
rabbit and Battir
Hi Scott, great examples thanks. any particular system used to generate them? Peter
