wordy wednesday...forward and backward


 





















**************************************

And did you know:

An emordnilap (palindrome spelled backwards) is a word that can be read differently in reverse – it is read one way forward and another way backwards. Emordnilaps, or semordnilap if you're really into doing things backward, give you reversed pairs of words, not the same word. They're also called reverse pairs and plain backwards words. Emordnilaps are a fun oddity of the English language.
