Palindrome Checker & Generator

A palindrome is a word, phrase, number, or sequence of characters that reads the same forwards and backwards. Examples include "racecar", "A man a plan a canal Panama", and "12321". This tool can check both character-level palindromes (ignoring spaces and punctuation) and word-level palindromes (where the sequence of words is the same when reversed).

Character-level checking ignores spaces, punctuation, and case, then verifies if the sequence of characters reads the same forwards and backwards (e.g., "A man a plan a canal Panama"). Word-level checking preserves word boundaries and checks if the sequence of words is the same when reversed (e.g., "king queen queen king"). Choose the mode based on what you want to verify.

The generator creates a palindrome from your input text by mirroring it. In character mode, it appends the reverse of your text to create a character palindrome. In word mode, it reverses the order of words and appends them. For example, "hello" becomes "helloolleh" in character mode, and "hello world" becomes "hello world world hello" in word mode.

Yes, in character-level mode, the checker normalizes text by removing spaces, punctuation, and converting to lowercase before checking. This allows phrases like "A man, a plan, a canal: Panama!" to be correctly identified as palindromes. Word-level mode preserves word boundaries but is case-insensitive.

Absolutely! The tool handles both single words and complex multi-word phrases. Examples of multi-word palindromes include "Never odd or even", "Was it a car or a cat I saw", and "Madam, in Eden, I'm Adam". The character-level mode is perfect for these types of palindromes.

Famous palindromes include: "Madam", "Racecar", "Noon", "Level", "Civic", "A man a plan a canal Panama", "Never odd or even", "Was it a car or a cat I saw", and "Do geese see God?". Numbers can also be palindromes, like 121, 12321, or 2002.

Yes! This tool is perfect for creating palindrome puzzles, word games, educational materials, and creative writing exercises. Use the generator to create palindromic patterns, or use the checker to verify solutions to palindrome challenges.

Yes, the character-level mode works with alphanumeric characters. Special characters and punctuation are ignored during the palindrome check, but numbers are included. For example, "12321" would be correctly identified as a palindrome.

There is no strict length limit for palindrome checking. The tool processes text entirely in your browser, so it can handle short words, long sentences, or even paragraphs efficiently. Very long texts will still be checked quickly.

The character-level mode works best with Latin alphabet text (English and similar languages). For other writing systems, the tool will still function, but the normalization process (removing punctuation and case conversion) is optimized for Latin characters. Word-level mode works with any language that uses spaces to separate words.

No, all palindrome checking and generation happens entirely in your browser. Your text is never sent to any server, stored in databases, or transmitted over the internet. Your content remains completely private and secure.

The normalized text display shows how your input looks after the tool removes spaces, punctuation, and converts to lowercase (in character mode). This helps you understand exactly what the tool is checking and makes it easier to identify why something is or isn't a palindrome.
