I was asked this question:

Is there a term for adding the first letter of a word onto the end of a word so the word can be read backwards.
e.g, banana, ananab.

I have no idea what the term is if it exists, but someone has probably dreamt up a word for it. Does anyone know? ;-)
 
They couldn't come up with an answer here.
 
Thanks for that- interesting lists of the nameless words. ;-)
