Now you have a sequence of letters, an anagram, that you want to transform into actual word. An anagram is a word or phrase formed by rearranging the letters of another word or phrase, using all the original letters exactly once.

Here are some tips on how to solve anagrams:

• Identify common prefixes and suffixes: Look for common word parts that appear at the beginning or end of words, as they can provide clues to potential solutions.
• Focus on vowels and consonants: Start by identifying and placing vowels, as they often form the core of words. Then, consider the remaining consonants to complete the word.
• Experiment with rearranging letters: Try rearranging the letters in different orders to form new combinations. Sometimes a small change in arrangement can reveal a valid word.
