I wish to inquire: If you were asked to backwardsify a mathematical expression, would you more easily produce the sounds or the symbols? How does the experience differ from backwardsifying (it occurs to me now there's a word for this already) words?
Cool, thanks for answering. This makes me think it's related to the phonological loop somehow, but if so it's strange that you come up with the pronunciations as reverse-spelled rather than reverse order phonemes. Irregular nonsense words like ljordubf or tawrengv I'm guessing work about as well or worse than other languages?
Seems like an offshoot of a bright mind but underused. Maybe OP is ought to find fields of work that utilize this heavily, like deep organic chemistry.
Feels like humanity would benefit more than from what OP is known for — takes on current affairs.
would you be able to teach this or do you think its too much of just a natural talent to fully understand it? You mentioned that you can't really describe how you do it. it kind of reminds me of song writers vs non songwriters. for songwriters the songs just come to them and then everyone else wonders how on earth it happened. I remember paul mccartney claiming that one of his songs came to him in a dream. I wonder if paul would actually be able to teach songwriting.......
this is very cool. blocked and reported.
Huh?
I loved this story!! Truly amazing and absolutely useless!
this is fantastic!

I couldn't backwardsify a mathematical expression. I also weirdly can't do it much with other languages.
What about nonsense words with English phonemes, like shuckmast or breeful?
I can do those.

Do you know your ABCs in reverse order?

Don’t think I could teach it. I cant really explain how to do it—it’s just innate.
