Move the first letter to the back, and it spells it backward.
Example:
banana..
becomes Ananab
Which is banana backwards.

By removing the first letter of each, you create what is called a "palindrome," which is just a fancy way of saying a word that is spelled the same backwards and forwards.

Move the first letter to the end of the word, then spell it backward. Each word reads the same!

If you move the first letter of each word to the end, it reads the same backwords.
assess - a = ssessa which reads asses backwords.
Good one, I love it.

if you remove the first letter, you have a palindrome....
or, another way of saying it is if you take the first letter and put it at the end, then you have the same word backwards.

Each word is exactly the same when you reverse it, after you drop the first letter?
