According to the MacMillan Dictionary, a word, phrase, or sentence that reads the same forward and backward, as »Otto«, »Madam I'm Adam« and »Was it a cat I saw?«. Differs from the palimpsest, where earlier writing is erased partially or completely, and the anagram, where there is a reordering of letters with an implicit or explicit connecting idea, as in »best in prayer« for Presbyterian and »evil« for veil.

Technically, and according to most dictionaries (here the MacMillan), a palindrome reads the same forward and backward. »Otto«, »Madam I'm Adam« and »Was it a cat I saw« are typical examples. Not to be confused with palimpsest, where the previous writing is erased or the anagram, where there is a connecting idea and reordering of letters: presbyterian --> best in prayer; veil --> evil. But a combination of the three processes is possible.
