Oh that fantastic Wild Turkey bourbon spice, how I adore you and here in barrel 36 from rick 35 in warehouse C you come out in a crashing monstrous wave.
One common term is semordnilap (the word palindrome spelled backwards). Palindromes, like radar and racecar, spell the same word forward or backward. Semordnilaps are differâ¦ent real words when spelled backwards, such as was/saw, liar/rail, diaper/repaid, and desserts/stressed. Other terms for these words are opisograms, or reverse anagrams.

If you love word play, you probably know that a word â or longer piece of writing â that reads the same forward and backward is called a palindrome. But what do you call a word that spells another word backwards, or a word that looks the same upside down?
