^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I remember, this is a so called palindrom.
Letters, words or sentence that reverse are valid, like: "anna" or "eva
ave".
The longest palindrom I know in german is: "EIN NEGER MIT GAZELLE ZAGT
IM REGEN NIE". Of course, impossible to translate to be a palindrom. But
perhaps there are some in english?
Does anyone knows the name of a "square-palindrom", like this above?
At this point I would like to know the meaning of this latin sentence.
(What ever said in latin sounds profound! I'm anxious.)
Ave, Gerhard
PS: Perhaps we should develope a mulinux-palindrom :-)
