anagramsHi, and welcome to anagrams!
This community is intended for those of us who love to take apart the words and phrases we use in everyday life... literally. Often, anagrams can be used to reveal new, unforeseen subtexts in things we take for granted. For example, the phrase:
Dreamwidth Studios, LLC
can be rearranged to reveal why DW was created:
Crowd due mild tit slash!
One tool that can be used to find anagrams if you're stuck is The Internet Anagram Server, although it can be a bit limited. If you use Windows, another possibility is Anagram Genius, which is shareware but offers more possibilities, and a better sorting system, than the Internet Anagram Server does. Sometimes the best anagrammer is your own brain, if you can do it.
However you make your anagrams, we want to see them. Let rip!

The thing about an, or probably really about the dictionary it's being fed, is that the minimum word size typically has to be cranked up to at least 3 to keep down the reams of junk, and that leaves out a lot of prepositions and articles and such.
