Word Ways
Abstract
The letters of some words can travel in a circle, like the whirling of juggled balls. Such words -- in which the first letter can be moved from frontword to backword to form another word -- have been labeled "cyclic transposals." I prefer the more straightforward term "looping anagrams."
