Palindrome

Post by Will Williams » Tue Feb 22, 2022 10:18 pm

pal·in·drome - /ˈpalənˌdrōm/ - noun, a word, phrase, or sequence that reads the same backward as forward. Ex: racecar.

The best known palindrome in our circles has to be Dr. Revilo P. Oliver's name. Naming certain babies palindromically was a tradition in Dr. Oliver's family.

That only works with certain names. I'm thankful that I wasn't named Smailliw W. Smailliw.

Today, Feb. 22, 2022, or, 2/22/22, a rare palindrome day filled with all twos with an added bonus of falling on a Tuesday, the second day of the week -- or Twosday. Think about what you were doing at 2:22 this morning or afternoon.

My first marriage was performed by PM Ben Klassen on 8/8/88. So I figured it would be a union blessed in Valhalla. :roll: I thought wrong about that.

Ok, maybe I am stupid or something, but I don't understand this guy.
​Because you don't understand doubletalk doesn't make you stupid.

Was it a cat I saw?
was is an adverb, it is an adverb, a is an adverb making cat a verb, I is an adverb making saw into a dangling participle verb.
Were is the verb cat?

Thank you for the grammar lesson, Scott.

No, cat is not a verb, but Was it a cat I saw? is a palindrome -- read the same frontwards as backwards -- the subject of this topic. I would think that, surely, anyone who understands the ramblings of :David-Wynn: Miller would recognize that. ;)
