The word for palindromes?
I can't remember the word for palindrome in Japanese.
Speaking of which, I learned one from a video off site. 「ままがわたしにしたわがまま」 and I THINK it means "selfish act mother committed against me" ?

The dictionary is your friend, try checking the WWWJDIC.

You didn't understand "TJP e youkoso" but you knew the Japanese word for "palindrome"?

Why do so many people think it is easier to post a question on a forum and wait for an answer rather than look a word up in one of the many on-line dictionaries?
Don't complain to me that people kick you when you're down. It's your own fault for lying there

Edit: it's not on any dictionary siiiite. Well, i'm not sure, but I don't have any sort of Japanese-English dictionary handy.....I should get one.
Edit two: Ohoho~ Leave it up to me to not be able to see the answer sitting right in front of my face...Ahaha.

Even weirder is this quote from Destruction_Song's first post:
Anyways, I'm not a total beginner to Japanese I can read and comprehend to some extent.
If he/she can read and comprehend Japanese to some extent, surely he/she would know something as simple as ~へようこそ...
