If the position of other letters is kept unchanged (search for paronym):
Example: From the word LETTER, by switching the first letter with a B, on can make the word BETTER.
If letters can be scrambled, then:
Example: From the word LETTER, by changing one letter without keeping the position of the letters, on can make the existing words TESTER (+S -L) or STREET (+S -L).
If no letter is changed, see anagrams.
How not to change any letter in a word?
