Palindromic Poetic Adventures: SPELLING with Palinkus

 










 






Each line in the slide immediately above shows a relevant "magical palindrome". You can learn more about this unique lexical phenomenon (even to its creators it's rather puzzling) by clicking HERE.

Our entire display on this blogpost leads us to the following conclusions about using palindromes for spelling:

1. The "palinku", a form of constrained but "free" (non-rhyming) verse, is a great way to convey ideas. You can find lots more examples of palinku verses on our blog-posts, starting HERE; (they are displayed on the 17th of every month on "Daily Illustrated Nonsense" from 2020 through 2024.)  

2. The information given by palindromes is more misleading than it is helpful.

3. The repetition of the letters in the left and right parts of the phrase or sentence make differentiating between correct and possibly incorrect spellings difficult. 

4. "Magical palindromes" can only overcome a portion of the problem. 

5. Enjoy the rest of your day!

Once you arrive, you can select your time frame of interest from the calendar-based listings in the righthand margin, and check the daily offerings for any month in the years 2020 to the present. (As of June 2024, there are over 1500 unique entries available on the Daily blog, and most of these are also presented here on 'Edifying Nonsense' in topic-based collections.) The 'Daily' format has the advantage of including Giorgio's photo-collages, song-lyrics and other material that are not shown here on this topic-based blog.
