Symmetrical words (Posted on 2004-05-21) Difficulty: 2 of 5
Can you think of words...

with horizontal symmetry?
with vertical symmetry?
with 180 degrees rotation symmetry?

What are the LONGEST words in each category? (Common words are preferred.)

Words with symmetry ? | Comment 9 of 18 |

The phrase "words with symmetry" either means "words with symmetrical letters" (Penny) or "words with the quality of being symmetrical as a whole" (Thought Provoker, Charlie). It is undeniably ambiguous. btw...I am speechless that Charlie's program missed the very common word IHI'IHI (rare Hawaiian fern that now exists only in three populations, two of which are inside volcanoes). That is the kind of mistake you'd expect in a program written in OKEECHOBEE, YAWATAHAMA or OHIO.
