You know what a palindrome is... a word (or group of words) that's spelt the same way forward and backward... like the name Otto. Otto backward is still Otto. And Hannah too. Post any you know of (not just names, but words) in other languages.

Try not to post forty or so at a time - there aren't too many natural palindromes in any given language, so try to give others a chance to think of them.
