Is there a word describing this?

Answer 1

It is, in fact, anagram. I don't know what "constonterbane" is (and I assume the other word is a foreign language term), but the word does not exist in english.

See below for the definition of anagram. It is, indeed, words formed out other words by juxtaposing the letters, or dropping/adding them.

Answer 2

Often mistakenly referred to as an anagram, the proper term is "genidafrough." Sometimes (rarely) referred to as a constonterbane.
