I was bothtered that what I thought would work didn't, but it does.
;@(,&' '&.>"1)|.;:'see happy cat'
cat happy see
f=: ;@(,&' '&.>"1)
f|.;:'see happy cat'
cat happy see
I should have just used f not f a.
I wouldn't have been happy anyway as I was replacing &. With both &. And
&
I followed the trail to get an inverse or obverse and failed to realize I
was in the
Power section and never noticed or remembered you good solution. Thanks.
;:^:_1 |.;:'see happy cat'
cat happy see
This is very teachable!
a=:'see happy cat'
;:a
┌───┬─────┬───┐
│see│happy│cat│
└───┴─────┴───┘
|.;:a
┌───┬─────┬───┐
│cat│happy│see│
└───┴─────┴───┘
;:^:_1 |.;:a
cat happy see
NB. u&.v y ↔ vi u v y
(|.&.;:a)-:;:^:_1 |.;:a

Thanks again. Linda

You quote (below)
NB. u&.v y ↔ vi u v y
NB. ;: has obverse from vocab ;@(,&' '&.>"1)
which is what it does, though I don't see why you want to use it in
preference to ;:^:_1
;@(,&' '&.>"1)|.;:'see happy cat' NB. Apply vocab obverse of ;: to reversed
boxed words cat happy see
;:^:_1 |.;:'see happy cat' NB. longwinded form of |.&.;:
cat happy see

Not good!

Lovely but when I try to remove &. I get this:
NB. u&.v y ↔ vi u v y
NB. ;: has obverse from vocab ;@(,&' '&.>"1)
f=:;@(,&' '&.>"1)
f a
s e e h a p p y c a t

|length error

Just a little early morning puzzle.
