Reverse Text Generator — Flip Characters or Word Order
Type or paste any text to reverse it instantly character-by-character, plus see the word-order reversal and a breakdown of letters, digits and punctuation in the input.
How does this calculator work?
Reverse text = original characters in reverse order, e.g. "Hello" → "olleH". Word-order reversal keeps words intact but flips sequence, e.g. "one two" → "two one". Paste any text and both results appear instantly alongside a character-composition breakdown.
Formula
How this is calculated
Character reversal treats the input as a flat sequence of code points, mirrors their order, and reassembles them into a string. For standard ASCII and most European-script text this produces the intuitive mirror image. For text with multi-code-point characters (e.g. emoji with skin-tone modifiers, certain Devanagari sequences, or surrogate pairs), a character-by-character reverse may split a logical character across the boundary — the generator shows the result honestly without attempting to detect or reorder grapheme clusters.
Word-order reversal splits the text at spaces, reverses the list of tokens, and rejoins them with a space. This keeps each word intact (characters in their original order) but reverses the sequence of words — useful for checking palindromic phrases or mirroring sentence structure.
The character-composition bar breaks the input into broad categories: Unicode letters (a–z, A–Z and any Unicode letter codepoint), ASCII digits, space characters, and everything else (punctuation, symbols). This gives a quick visual sense of the input's makeup regardless of the language used.
Frequently asked questions
Yes — the reversal operates on JavaScript string code units, so it handles accented letters (é, ü, ñ), Cyrillic, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, and most other scripts correctly. Complex emoji or multi-codepoint sequences may not reverse as expected.
Character reversal flips every letter and symbol: "Hello!" becomes "!olleH". Word-order reversal keeps each word intact but flips the order of words: "one two three" becomes "three two one". Both results are shown.
This tool reverses the character sequence. For true upside-down or mirror-image Unicode text (using special Unicode look-alike characters), you would need a separate Unicode-flipping tool that maps each character to its mirrored counterpart.
