  1. R-15 · Distinction · directed

    Acrostic → Anagram

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    An acrostic uses letters from selected positions to create an additional reading. An anagram rearranges letters already present. The two forms use different rules for selecting or ordering letters.

  2. R-16 · Cross-field connection · directed

    Acrostic → Trace

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    An acrostic deliberately leaves a second reading for readers to discover. The notion of a trace draws attention to how they might find it. The comparison leaves open whether an intentional encoding counts as a trace in the narrower, causal sense.
    Evidence basis
    Importierter Querverweis über Fachgrenzen (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Recorded review status
    ATLAS_109 klassifiziert (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)

  3. R-95 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Letter puzzle → Acrostic

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    An acrostic can become a letter puzzle when the reader must extract a hidden sequence from selected positions. It can also serve as a poetic form in its own right.
    Evidence basis
    Gemeinsamer fachlicher Kontinent (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Recorded review status
    ATLAS_109 klassifiziert (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
