hi. just found this tribe and i have a longtime skill that i will soon present to the guiness book of world records.
i can say any word in the english language backwards. instantly. if i can spell it i can say it backwards wthout a second thought. i am also a very good speller so stumping me has proven next to impossible. i have done the entire dictionary from z to a when i first descovered this hidden talent(i was fifteen). i am estimating that with 3 people giving me words at the same time that my record will be set at about 60 in a minute. like i said, instantly.
i am looking for anyone else who can do this or got good enough at it to run (speak backwards) a race against myself so i can qualify for the guiness book. ive done this for 15 years and have yet to run into anyone else who can do it. we could very easily speak without being understood by anyone else. i know its a longshot, but hey, why not try and find you?
if you can say these words backwards without actually reading them backwards, please write to me.
priceless
light
energy
creates
progression
within
cultures
now ask someone a word or ten and see how you do.
thanks for your time

You could record it, then play the recording backwards.

Actually did this stunt in High School, after a geek before his time rigged a tape recorded to do the deed.
Words did not come out as expected, primarily due to cadence and accentuation. About the only word combination I remember is "Tish Lube", pronounced not exactly as written- accentuate the "Be" for one thing. It's, of course "Bull Shit"
Incidentally , piano playing backwards sounds akin to an organ. The piano impulse is sharp, then trails away. Backwards it rises and abruptly ceases.
