Where it comes from

noun anagrams · anagramme
- A word or phrase that is created by rearranging the letters of another word or phrase. As Mr. Sloan always says, there is no "I" in "team", but there is an "I" in "pie". And there's an "I" in "meat pie". Anagram of "meat" is "team"… I don't know what he's talking about.
