What this tool does

Two phrases are anagrams when one can be rearranged into the other using every letter exactly once. This tool normalizes both phrases by lowercasing them and dropping anything that isn't a letter or digit, sorts the remaining characters, and compares the results — the same technique used to solve anagram puzzles by hand. It works on single words like 'listen' and 'silent' as well as multi-word phrases like 'a decimal point' and 'I'm a dot in place'.

How to use it

  1. Type the first word or phrase.
  2. Type the second word or phrase.
  3. See instantly whether they're anagrams, along with each side's sorted letters.

Frequently asked questions

Does spacing and punctuation matter?
No. Spaces, punctuation and letter case are all ignored, so only the letters and digits themselves are compared.
Do the phrases have to be the same length?
They don't need to have the same number of characters typed, but once spaces and punctuation are stripped out, an anagram always has exactly the same letters as the other phrase.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. The comparison runs locally in your browser.
