Аннотация
Palindromes represent a distinctive linguistic phenomenon characterized by formal symmetry and the possibility of maintaining an identical or substantially similar sequence when read in opposite directions. Although palindromes are frequently associated with wordplay and verbal entertainment, their linguistic value extends beyond structural symmetry. They demonstrate the interaction of sound, graphic form, lexical organization, semantic interpretation, and stylistic intention. This article examines the linguistic symmetry of palindromes and explores its stylistic significance in language use.
