Isn't "palindrome" a terribly poor word for palindromes ?

Not nearly as bad as dyslexia. Someone somewhere is sniggering behind his hand at getting away with that one. Cruel bugger.

Ha! Some of you have been wasting your time. :smile:

[Monty] I am aware of the 'word' but am unsure as to whether any etymologist would give it a tick of approval.

[Malc] What a great list! You definitely have too much time on your hands. Yes, it's one of your offerings. Further than that I shall not comment.

I'm sure Americanglish is full of palindromes like that, what with it all being made up on the spot.

That Pepsi advert with its "waterfalls dove" still grates.

Anyway, today I'm happy with the richness of the English language, having discovered the word empyreumatic.

Interestingly, it was from a French review of a Spanish wine. So 10/10 :D

Today I am happy because I have noticed my snowdrops are in full flower and the daffodils are starting to appear. Spring is getting closer.
