What was Scrabble’s Original Name?
?March 26, 2011
scrabble
Great things can come out of hard times — take "Scrabble". During the Great Depression, architect Alfred Mosher Butts couldn’t find work. So he decided to create a board game that required the vocabulary skills of "anagrams" and crossword puzzles but also had an element of chance. Butts hand-drew the original board with architectural drafting equipment. He also hand-lettered the tiles. He studied the front page of the New York Times, the New York Herald Tribune, and The Saturday Evening Post to calculate the frequency of each letter in the alphabet and then came up with a point value system.

At first, the game was named "Lexiko".

Then he called it "Criss-Cross Words".

Butts’ story was not one of success from the start. He tried and failed to sell Criss-Cross Words to game manufacturers. Milton Bradley rejected the game in 1933. James Brunot came on board as a business partner, and renamed the game "Scrabble", which means "to scratch" or "scrape" and "to scrawl".

13. Politically Incorrect English

A neutral language for the Internet (1 Apr 99)

The number of people making use of the Internet for e-mail or here on the Web is still growing daily. Anyone who is reading this has at least used the latter. And many of us have had occasion to communicate abroad. If so, you could hardly help noticing that discussion groups, exchanges of e-mail messages, and Web pages have a way of being in English no matter what the country. In a Special Report "The Internet: Fulfilling the Promise" in its March 1997 issue, "Scientific American" addresses this question in the section "Multilingualism on the Internet".

This use of English is hardly surprising, since some 60% of the Internet's host computers are in the U.S. But even though this on-line English is so convenient for us that we hardly think about it, the nearly exclusive use of English is resented in many parts of the world, and movements for the wider - and in some countries even exclusive - use of other languages are increasing rapidly.

What the article did not discuss is that the drift toward English as the dominant Internet language is crumbling, and that we are swiftly heading toward a new "Tower of Babel". This has led to attempts to address the problem of this growing political friction, and at the same time that of a runaway multilingualism on the Internet. The IAA (Internet Administration Authority) has decided to implement a sensible solution. Starting June 1 of this year, over the next two years English will be phased out entirely, and a language free of any political or diplomatic burden will be substituted as the only one permitted on the Internet.

Following years of discreet diplomatic negotiations, it was concluded that the situation called for a minority language free of any political power base. Additional years of research selected a few languages that were felt to be politically and linguistically well suited to this vital new world-wide role. The language finally approved goes by the name "Rolo-Pifla". What gave it the edge over the other choices, aside from its political neutrality, is its ideal linguistic structure. First of all, the Rolo-Pifla language has three vowels "i", "o" and "a" and only the nine consonants "d f g k l m p r s".

Since the language has never been written before, it has no illogical spellings. We can write it phonetically in our familiar Roman alphabet. Rolo-Pifla will use a total of 12 letters, which means that the other half of the alphabet on the keyboard is now free for other uses. The Internet being an area where a great variety of feelings is expressed, these 14 letters will be used - in any combination - to express an endless range of feelings about the message.

To illustrate this uniquely interesting fact about the language, let's take just three of a great many examples. The letter "h" adds the feeling of consternation, "z" conveys "too much of anything", and "x" communicates exasperation. All such letters can be doubled to indicate special emphasis, and they can be inserted anywhere in the word.

How would this look in practice? In Rolo-Pifla the word "domsipapmogadidiffosk" means "water" (literally "has no shape seeing through it bathing cooking drinking"), "gik" is "taste/smell of roasted beans", "sappokappo" means "hot", and "pigogg" is "something that can be poked or tapped". So, looking back at the examples above, we can assemble a sentence. It is easy to see that we write "domsipapmogadidiffoskgiksappokappozzpigogghhxx" when we want to say "Oops, I spilled hot coffee on my keyboard, blast it!"

This is what we will all be writing soon. Even this brief example shows that Rolo-Pifla has an admirably easy-to-learn grammatical structure. There are no irregular verbs because there are no verbs. The language consists entirely of nouns, which are actually mini-phrases. Words that we have to translate into English with an adjective are phrases as well. For instance, "sappokappozz" "too hot" literally means "an uncomfortable burning sensation dropping it / spitting it out".

To return to the political reasons for the choice: Rolo-Pifla is spoken by approximately 150 people in the mountain highlands of New Guinea. It is an area so inaccessible that the language is very nearly unique in the world in having escaped all influence from English and its terminology. None of its speakers are computer users, and the most recent anthropological survey shows that 97.8% of them had never heard of a computer.

A four-page pamphlet has been prepared that contains an exhaustive Rolo-Pifla grammar and its complete vocabulary. In order to guarantee that the 250,000,000 copies reach all Americans, it will be sent to everyone on the IRS mailing lists immediately after April 15.

You'll agree we can hardly help rejoicing at all this. The IAA has created for us a unique opportunity to free the Internet from not only political friction but also the many spelling and grammar eccentricities of English. This will make life simpler and more harmonious for all of us. So let's hear it for "Rolo-Pifla"!

The Anagram Dictionary

A long time ago I decided to make use of an electronic scrabble dictionary by using it to build an anagram dictionary. Many years later, I happened to mention that in the course of a discussion in the newsgroup, alt.anagrams and put it online. Checking the logs, next to no one looked at it. A few weeks later I found a fair amount of people all round the world, especially domains ending in .edu, looking at the anagrams file - about 10 a day. Curious, I put a msg at the beginning of the document asking where they found it, assuming some anagram page had put in a link. It took ages for a reply but finally I was told a search engine had picked up on it. Whether they search through Usenet looking for URL's or someone submitted it I do not know.

Wordplay in Vergil and Claudian
Damien Nelis

Résumé

The Pedant’s Curse: Obscurity and Identity in Ovid’s Ibis
Darcy Krasne

Résumé

This paper investigates the extended catalogue of curses in Ovid’s Ibis, in particular the catalogue's literary significance and the reasons and methods behind Ovid's organizing principles and choice of themes. I demonstrate how the Ibis plays with presenting itself in the manner of mythographic texts while exploiting the polyvalency of the mythic tradition’s inherent mutability and syncretism. I also discuss how major themes of the poem, such as a prevalent emphasis on names and their suppression, and an identification of the poetic corpus with the poet’s own body, echo the thematic concerns of Ovid’s other exile poetry. Finally, I argue for identifying Ovid’s pseudonymous enemy “Ibis” with the Muses, whose “love/hate” relationship with Ovid is clearly expressed in the exile poetry.

149 This is a normal feature of ancient linguistic play and etymologizing. Ahl (1985) 44-54 shows a number of clear anagrams in Vergil, such as the half-line pulsa palus (Aen. 7.702), as well as pointing out that as serious a philosopher as Plato includes theories of anagrams in the Cratylus. At Cratylus 395D-E, for instance, Socrates proposes that "talantaton" is behind Tantalus’s name. (See Sedley [1998] on the etymologies of the Cratylus, whether anagrammatic or otherwise.) Tzetzes (Schol. Lyc. p. 5.6-8 Scheer) records, perhaps spuriously (Cameron [1995b] 481-2, but cf. West [1984] 129n11), that Lycophron invented anagrams, including two on the names of Ptolemy Philadelphus and Arsinoe ("apd melitos" and "???", respectively). Cameron (1995b) disputes the existence of non-etymological anagrams in antiquity, but the example he chooses from Ahl (1985) to prove that “almost all the cases that carry any conviction at all are etymological associations of one sort or another” (479) first of all ignores the presence of a secondary and non-etymological anagram in the same line and, secondly, does not take into account the existence of such half-line anagrams as "pulsa palus": “Verg. Aen. 8.322-3, LATIUmque vocari / maluit, his quoniam LATUIsset [tutus] in oris. The reader is clearly encouraged to look for the meaning of the name here, scarcely an anagram as we understand the term, since it is the very similarity of the words that is held to justify connecting them” (479). The presence of maluit at the beginning of 8.323 defies Cameron’s dismissal of non-etymological anagrammatic play in these lines; contra Harrison (1986), who believes that intentional anagrammatic play in such cases “seems fundamentally unlikely. The error here is not to find anagrams but to ascribe them to the poet” (237).

Cette lecture du Peregrino en su patria se propose d’aller au-delà de l’étiquette de roman d’aventures qui lui est couramment apposée. En partant du double constat du titre paradoxal et de l’absence d’auto sacramental à la fin du cinquième livre, il s’agira de montrer à la lumière de trois épisodes particuliers - le pèlerinage à Montserrat, le séjour dans l’hôpital des fous de Valence et la nuit fantasmatique dans un autre hôpital, refuge de pèlerins - comment le destin romanesque de Pánfilo épouse une autre trajectoire - allégorique - sous l’espèce d’une « révélation personnelle ».

100. Pirie, G.H. “Letters, Words, Worlds: The Naming of SOWETO.” African Studies Journal 43, no. 1 (1984): 43-51.

It is amazing how a contrived name such as "Soweto", an anagram for "South West Township" has evolved beyond the paucity of its original meaning to represent a multitude of political, social and historical meanings for the entire world. In this dense article, Pirie provides us with some elements of understanding about the naming of "Soweto". The first section describes the naming process from the 1930’s to the 1960’s. Using information from local archives, the author brings to light a long series of power struggles between the different boards around the issue of what the linguistic and ethnic origin of the name should be. In a second section, Pirie reflects on the meaning of the large number of proposed names and some of the insights these names provide into the minds of South Africans of that era. The author states that even the names that did not make it to the top of the list are “rich depositories of information about the perception of places.” Pirie concludes with an epistemological reflection on the genesis of toponyms. He rejects the concept of toponyms as “historical signposts” which he attributes to Taylor and foregrounds the social conditions surrounding the emergence of certain toponyms which are exemplified by the genesis and the meaning of the name Soweto.

Anagrams

Definition Anagram: An anagram of a piece of text is an arbitrary rearrangement of its letters (without consideration of whitespace and punctuation characters and without regard to the semantic content).

If you do this rearrangement randomly, you'll get just a muddle of letters. Probably, this won't be very interesting to you. But it can be very funny to find anagrams that make sense by itself, especially if this new meaning interferes somehow with the original meaning. Here are some good links concerning anagrams:

Shakespeare: As You Like It

With one Duke exiled, his younger brother takes his place in the court; a pair of girls, "Rosalind" and "Celia", the daughters of each Duke, are forced by the new Duke’s anger and their ties of friendship to travel into the Forest of Arden, followed by a courtier, Touchstone. In the forest where the elder Duke resides, the girls’ paths cross with Orlando, himself fleeing his elder brother’s tyranny. Through song and dance, with poetry and cross-dressing, four couples take shape and eventually marry before the goddess Hymen. The play concludes as it began, with the old Duke leaves Arden and his brother entering the forest: one Duke absent, one Duke in the court.

Vanessa

E. Cobham Brewer 1810-1897. Dictionary of Phrase and Fable. 1898.

"Vanessa" is Miss "Esther Vanhomrigh", and Cade’nus is Dean Swift. While he was still married to Stella [Miss Hester Johnson, whose tutor he had been] Miss Vanhomrigh fell in love with him, and requested him to marry her, but the dean refused. The proposal became known to his wife (?), and both the ladies died soon afterwards. Hester Johnson was called Stella by a pun upon the Greek aster, which resembles Hester in sound, and means a “star.” Miss Vanhomrigh was called "Van-essa" by compounding "Van", the first syllable of her name, with "Essa", the pet form of "Esther". "Cadenus" is simply "decanus" ("dean") slightly transposed.

Vanessa Redgrave (Biography)

Date of Birth 30 January 1937, Greenwich, London, England, UK

On January 30th, 1937, renowned theatre actor "Michael Redgrave" was performing in a production of Hamlet in London where the show's lead Laurence Olivier announced to the audience during the curtain call that "tonight a great actress was born", this was in reference to his co-star's new baby daughter, "Vanessa Redgrave".

"Vanessa" was born in Greenwich, to "Michael Redgrave" and "Rachel Kempson", both thespians. Three quarters of a century after her birth (despite numerous ups and down) this rather forward expectation has definitely been lived up to with an acclaimed actress that has won (among many others) an Academy Award, two Emmys, two Golden Globes, two Cannes Best Actress awards, a Tony, a Screen Actors Guild award, a Laurence Olivier theatre award and a BAFTA fellowship.

The Circus of Words
Acrobatic Anagrams, Parading Palindromes, Wonderful Words on a Wire, and More Lively Letter Play

Language skills will fly through the air with the greatest of ease as kids join in "The Circus of Words". Children of all ages are delighted by anagrams, palindromes, acrostics, alliteration, riddles, and puns, yet few books on wordplay are addressed to middle-schoolers. This creative and challenging activity book shows kids how to juggle letters to become ringmasters of wordplay. The Shrinking Spotlight shows how larger words become smaller words when certain letters are removed. Clown Cars introduces the idea of words hiding within words, and The Acro Bat and Silver Spoonerisms show off letter clusters that change from one word to another. The whole bandwagon is here, enabling kids, who are natural language enthusiasts, to cavort through that endless entertainment, the English language.

Richard Lederer (born May 26, 1938) is an American author, speaker, and teacher best known for his books on word play

Word play is a literary technique in which the words that are used become the main subject of the work. Puns, phonetic mix-ups such as spoonerisms, obscure words and meanings, clever rhetorical excursions, oddly formed sentences, and telling character names are common examples of word play....
