We very happily stumbled across the wonderful AnagramGenius website this week, which truly does have some genius anagrams – including a range of Shakespeare anagrams from the ridiculous to the sublime.
Â
Â
‘William Shakespeare’ is an anagram of:
‘Hear me as I will speak’
‘I swear I’ll make heaps’
…and perhaps our favourite, ‘We shall make a pie sir!’
Â
‘William Shakespeare, The Bard of Avon’ is an anagram of ‘Abrasive alpha male of the worse kind’
Â
‘The Immortal Bard, William Shakespeare’ is an anagram of ‘This admirable writer shall make a poem’
Â
‘The Complete Works of William Shakespeare’ is an anagram of ‘Pick Marlowe, ask if he wrote all these poems’
Â
And playing around with Shakespeare’s hometown ‘Stratford-Upon-Avon in Warwickshire, Britain’ gives: ‘Harp a visit in our known, a terrific bard’s town’
Â
That’s the pick of Shakespeare anagrams from AnagramGenius. What do you think of these Shakespeare-related anagrams – could you do any better? Let us know your ideas in the comments below.
I love the challenge of anagrams–here are a few of mine from HAMLET:
Denmarke: “Reek! Damn! “Marke! End!
The Ghost: “Shh! Get to . . .
Laertes: “Ale rest” “Relates”
Fortinbras: “A first born”
Gertrude: “Greed rut”
Ophelia: “Oh! I plea”
Words, words, words: “Sword, sword, sword”
Elsinore: “Lose rein” “Norse lie” “Erle, I son” “Roseline”
Hamlet: “Amleth” (the origin of the play, found in Saxo Grammaticus)
