Frequently Asked Questions
A palindrome is a word, phrase, or sequence that reads the same forwards and backwards. Simple examples include "radar," "noon," and "level." Phrase palindromes like "A man, a plan, a canal: Panama" ignore spaces and punctuation.
A semordnilap (palindromes spelled backwards) is a word that forms a different valid word when reversed. Examples include star/rats, live/evil, dog/god, and desserts/stressed. They're also called heteropalindromes or word reversals.
Select the "Reverse Word Order" option to keep each word readable while reversing their sequence. "Hello World" becomes "World Hello" instead of "dlroW olleH". This is useful for creating varied sentence structures or specific puzzles.
Most emojis and special characters reverse correctly, though some complex emoji sequences (like skin tone modifiers or family emojis) may display unexpectedly when reversed due to how Unicode combines characters. Simple characters work perfectly.
Yes, backwards text is regular text and works anywhere text is supported. It's popular for creating intriguing posts, puzzle content, and unique usernames. The reversed text copies and pastes normally into any platform.
