Palindromes
Some words, like "radar," "level," and "racecar," read the same forwards and backwards. These special words are called palindromes!

Some famous musicians have hidden reversed speech in songs, known as "backmasking." This technique became popular in the 1960s and has been used for creative effect ever since.
