Do you know what a Palindrome is ? (Portuguese)
Aug 15th, 2007 by Julia
A palindrome is a word, phrase, number or sentence that reads the same in either direction.
The word “palindrome” was coined from the Greek roots (palin) “back” and (dromos) “way, direction”.
If you are called Ana, Oto, Hannah or Renner, your name is a palindrome. Backwards or forwards, it is spelled the same way.
Palindromes may consist of a single word: acaiaca, ala, anilina, arara, esse, iriri, mamam, matam, omo, osso, racificar, radar, reter, rever, reviver, sacas, salas, seres, saras, socos, sapas, solos, seles, somavamos, somos.
Palindromes may be phrase or sentence: A base do teto desaba.
Other known palindromes in Portuguese are:
Ame a ema.
Ame o poema.
A miss é péssima!
Amora me tem aroma.
Amor é de Roma.
Ana lava Lana.
Roma é amor.
On the 20th of February 2002 it was 20:02 02/20 2002 (numeric palindrome) Peter Norwig created a computer program which generated the world’s longest palindrome. It consisted of 17,259 words. This is a simple sequence of words, but the text itself makes no sense.
Interesting, Thanks!
