Very good indeed. Ok, those are anagrams. What do you call it when you make a sentence with words starting with each letter of a word. e.g. LUFTHANSA = Let us (ahem) fondle the hostesses and not say anything. or ARITHMETIC = A red indian thought he might eat tobacco in church. Apart from helping to learn spelling, we used a similar technique to remember things such as colours of the spectrum - Richard of York got boozed in Vienna = Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet.
