Palindrome for kids
A palindrome is a word that when spelled backwards makes the same word.
“Wow!”
Why do we say wow? Well, the first wow showed up in the early 1500s, primarily used by the Scottish!
“Out on thir wanderand spiritis, wow! thow cryis.”
Wow is a good example of a palindrome, where it is spelt the same backwards.
See below more examples of palindrome, where one word spells the same word backwards:
