Can you figure out why my friend likes certain things and not others?
My friend likes words with the following characteristic:
If you remove the first letter, then the letters left are a palindrome.
For example, uneven--> neven which is the same forwards and backwards.
Or another way of thinking about it:
When the initial letter is removed and added to the end, the word reads the same as it did originally,
but from right to left.
Eg, banana > ananab; potato > otatop; revive > eviver; dresser...
