Palindrome
Appearance
(Redirected from Ailihphilia)
A palindrome is a word, sentence, or number that reads the same from left to right as from right to left.[1][2] Punctuation does not matter, but letters and digits do. All alphabetic languages have palindromes. The first palindrome was the Latin Sator Square, which reads:
