What is Palindrome Checker?

A palindrome reads the same forwards and backwards. Words like level and noon are palindromes, and so are phrases like A man, a plan, a canal: Panama.

What this tool does

Removes spaces, punctuation and accents, ignores capital letters, and compares the remaining characters with the same characters in reverse. Each line you enter is checked separately.

How to use it

  1. Type a word or phrase, one per line.
  2. Read the verdict for each line.
  3. Try famous palindromes for fun.
