Change One Letter - for the better

You can:

Change one letter - e.g. Start to Stare
Add one - Start to Starts
Remove one - Start to Star
Move one - Start to Tarts

You cannot move more than one letter, or combine any of the moves (e.g. you cannot change the S in Start to a Y and then move it to make Tarty). No anagrams!

@AnneKipanki I think you’re posting on the wrong thread, it’s not WAG. I’ve done it a few times as well Blush

AnneKipanki · 04/06/2021 15:19

It is change a letter?

I am trying to do that .
Thanks for the information. It is easy to get mixed up .

AnneKipanki · 04/06/2021 15:58

I’m confused. I thought browser worked with Berrow. I added “s”.

@AnneKipanki you can only make one change. So can't add a letter AND move others around

MrsFin · 04/06/2021 16:15

Are you sure Purple? I've been doing that too and no one has pointed it out.

@AnneKipanki maybe start a thread for an anagram game. I'd play 😀
