    Humming bird.

    Sorry, my question was unclear.
    Redivider is a palindrome.

    What is the longest word in the English language that is read the same when you rotate it 180 degrees?
    (example "suns". picture the letter s's on a clock at 9 and 3, if you rotate the hands so they swap positions, the word still reads as "suns")

    so your just swapping the first and last letter but the letters in between stay in the same place?
