0 characters, 0 words, 0 lines
Emoji and accented letters are handled as whole characters, so they are not split apart when the text is flipped.
Four different reversals sit behind one set of radio buttons. Flipping the whole text turns hello world into dlrow olleh. Reversing each word's letters keeps the words where they are and gives you olleh dlrow. Reversing word order leaves the spelling alone and returns world hello. Reversing line order takes the last line to the top, which is handy for logs and exported lists that arrive newest first.
Multi line input is handled properly. Word order and letter reversal work line by line, so a 500 row list stays 500 rows with its blank lines and indentation intact. Characters are split with Array.from rather than by code unit, so emoji, accented letters and other characters outside the basic range are moved as single units instead of being broken into unreadable halves.
How to use the Reverse Text
- Paste or type your text into the box, including as many lines as you need.
- Pick one of the four reversal modes with the radio buttons.
- Read the reversed version in the result box, which updates as you type.
- Copy the result, or send it back into the box to stack a second reversal on top.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the four modes?
Whole text flips every character in the entire block. Each word's letters spells each word backwards but leaves word positions alone. Word order shuffles words on each line back to front. Line order keeps every line intact and reverses the sequence of the lines themselves.
Does it break emoji or accented letters?
No. Characters are split with Array.from, which walks code points rather than code units, so an emoji made of a surrogate pair moves as one piece. Some flag emoji and skin tone sequences are built from several joined code points and can still separate when flipped.
Can I reverse a list back to its original order?
Yes. Line order reversal is its own inverse, so running it twice returns the original list. The same is true of the other three modes. Use the button that sends the result back into the input box if you want to apply a second, different reversal.
Is reversed text useful for anything real?
It has practical uses beyond puzzles. Developers check palindrome logic with it, teachers build spelling exercises, and it is a quick way to flip a log file or CSV export that arrived in the wrong chronological order without opening a spreadsheet.
