Title: A Palindrome?
Post by: leefer on Friday, November 12, 2010, 20:29:13
Now i was told that this sentence is a Palindrome..one of the longest known in English

Doc note, i dissent,a fast never prevents a fatness,i diet on cod.


If someone can explain in laymans terms why this is a Pallindrome....i will be happy because it has been explained many times to myself...and i still dont get it :hmmm:

Flip it backwards and rearrange the spaces and you have the same sentence.

I was Googling for the longest palindromes a while back. There are some very, very long ones but they make fuck all sense even if they are grammatically correct. But I found this poem which is actually readable and makes a bit of sense;

Quote
Dammit I'm mad.
Evil is a deed as I live.
God, am I reviled? I rise, my bed on a sun, I melt.
To be not one man emanating is sad. I piss.
Alas, it is so late. Who stops to help?
Man, it is hot. I'm in it. I tell.
I am not a devil. I level "Mad Dog".
Ah, say burning is, as a deified gulp,
In my halo of a mired rum tin.
I erase many men. Oh, to be man, a sin.
Is evil in a clam? In a trap?
No. It is open. On it I was stuck.
Rats peed on hope. Elsewhere dips a web.
Be still if I fill its ebb.
Ew, a spider… eh?
We sleep. Oh no!
Deep, stark cuts saw it in one position.
Part animal, can I live? Sin is a name.
Both, one… my names are in it.
Murder? I'm a fool.
A hymn I plug, deified as a sign in ruby ash,
A Goddam level I lived at.
On mail let it in. I'm it.
Oh, sit in ample hot spots. Oh wet!
A loss it is alas (sip). I'd assign it a name.
Name not one bottle minus an ode by me:
"Sir, I deliver. I'm a dog"
Evil is a deed as I live.
Dammit I'm mad.

flammableben would be a palindrome if it was spelt the same way as nebelbammalf.
