How to reverse text
- Type or paste your text into the box.
- Choose what to reverse: All characters, Word order in each line, Letters in each word or Line order.
- Copy the result or download it.
The four modes
All characters turns the whole text backwards, so “Hello” becomes “olleH”. Line breaks are also flipped, so the last line becomes the first, and each line is spelled backwards.
Word order in each line keeps each word as it is, but reverses their order on every line. “one two three” becomes “three two one”. The spacing between words is kept.
Letters in each word reverses the letters inside every word and leaves the word order alone. “one two” becomes “eno owt”.
Line order turns a list upside down without changing the lines themselves.
The tool treats a letter and its accent, or an emoji made of several parts, as a single unit. A plain reversal of code units would break these into garbage. Hindi letters with vowel signs stay together for the same reason.
Tips
- A palindrome is a word that reads the same both ways. Reverse it and compare the result with the original by eye.
- To reverse a numbered list into countdown order, use Line order. To sort instead of reverse, use sort lines.
- Mirror-style fun text works best in a single line. Remove line breaks first if your text is spread over many lines.
- Check the size of the result with the character counter.
Good to know
Reversing twice returns the original text, so you can undo a mistake by running the same mode again. Spaces and punctuation are reversed along with the letters in character mode, so a full stop at the end moves to the start. In word and letter modes, punctuation attached to a word travels with it, which is the way most people expect.
