What is democracy poem?

What’s it called when you use the first letter of each word to make a phrase?
An acronym is a pronounceable word formed from the first letter (or first few letters) of each word in a phrase or title. The newly combined letters create a new word that becomes a part of everyday language.
The phonetic language – also known as the ‘spelling alphabet’ or the NATO phonetic alphabet – is used by professional communicators, especially police, military and other emergency and armed forces, to identify letters precisely, either when communicating initials, abbreviations or spellings of words.
What word can I use instead of dear?
If you mean “Dear” as a form of affection, then: beloved, esteemed, respected, honored, can all be substituted with relish. You probably could also use any of them in place of “dear” in the letter too, although it would sound a tad Victorian.

(Entry 1 of 2) 1 : a word or phrase made by transposing the letters of another word or phrase The word “secure” is an anagram of “rescue.”

New Game — Sentence — all words same letter
Okay, here is a new game we are playing on another forum. Make up a sentence and use the same letter for each word. This goes alphabetical, so the first sentence would use all A’s. Next person would use all B’s, and so forth. Just use the same letter for each word in your sentence. It goes alphabetically. I will start:
A-
Another August and apples are already abundant and ascending acrobatically amongst acorns and ants.
Next person, use B.

Is there a way to write «for» loop and «If Else» in python that searches through a sentence and find the number of words that start and end with the same letter?
I’ve tried writing something like:
sentence = "Mom knock the door"
list = sentence.split()
for word in sentence:
if ...

simply compare the character at the beginning of the string with the character at the end of the string like so:
if word[0] == word[-1]:
If it shouldn’t be case sensitive, lower the word first by calling:
word = word.lower()

words_list = sentence.split()
new_words_list = []
for word in words_list:
if word[0] == word[-1]:
new_words_list.append(word)
print('Number of words that starts and ends with same letter - {}'.format(len(new_words_list)))
Also you can do it with list comprehension:
new_words_list = [word for word in words_list if word[0] == word[-1]]
If you want not to have it case sensitive use word[0].lower()
and word[-1].lower()
instead of word[0]
and word[-1]

The answers above are all smart, I prefer to deal with it in functional programming way, like this:
sentence = "Mom knock the door"
def is_same_letter_at_begin_end(word):
return word and word[0].lower() == word[-1].lower()
target_words = list(filter(is_same_letter_at_begin_end, sentence.split()))
print(target_words)
print(len(target_words))

Write a sentence, where all words start with the same letter!:)
Come on, that will be fun and it is a language practice, too The sentence should make sense!
Example: Sometimes snow seems so soft.
minimum is 5 words, maximum is not fixed:) choose any letter ,the longest sentence wins, senseless will be disqualified! enjoy
