Reverse Word Order
Reverse the order of words in text
Frequently Asked Questions
How does word order reversal work?
The tool splits text into lines, then splits each line into words using whitespace as delimiters. It reverses the order of words within each line while preserving line breaks and the order of lines.
What happens to punctuation and special characters?
Punctuation attached to words (like "hello," or "world!") stays with the word during reversal. Isolated punctuation marks are treated as separate words in the reversal process.
Does this preserve formatting?
The tool preserves line breaks and general structure but normalizes spacing between words to single spaces. Multiple spaces, tabs, or other whitespace characters are consolidated to single spaces.
What are common uses for reversing word order?
Word reversal is used in linguistic studies, creating poetic effects, text obfuscation, educational exercises, and sometimes for creating search terms that match differently ordered text.
