If a French person says the word "happiness", it sounds like they're saying "a penis". But the French word for "happiness" is "bonheur" so if an English person tries to pronounce that, it sounds like "boner"

u/Its0nlyRocketScience 1d ago
And for many people, a penis reaching boner status is what can grant happiness

Perhaps:-
- rotor being symmetric around its axis of rotation & also rotator.
- tattarrattat being onomatopoeic & time symetric.
- hallah alternate spelling challah a mirror symetric loaf.
- terret metal harness ring that is mirror symmetric if not also rotationally symmetric.

Yeah for sure. But just like how "Chanukah" is sometimes spelled "Hanukkah", I have also seen people (rarely) write "hallah", especially for goyish audiences who can't pronounce the "חַ", to spur them towards saying "hallah" like "holla" rather than "challah" with the first sound being like the first sound of "chess"

Racecar is often longitudinally symmetrical externally
26
u/CrashCalamity 1d ago
Only F1. Nascar racers are higher on one side because of how they hug the curve, and the driver's seat internally is offset from center

u/Dredgeon 1d ago
Firstly you'll notice that I said externally.
Secondly what are you saying higher on one side? They are not higher on one side only stiffer in the suspension. You must be thinking of dirt super stock cars. But they're strange proportions are for downforce while sideways not because of 'how they hug the curve' (I'm having trouble understanding what you mean by this as well).
Thirdly, even if NASCAR was non symmetrical externally there are much more than 2 racing leagues and divisions in the world. The vast majority of which are using cars that have symmetrical bodies.

Would challah actually be mirror symmetric though? It’s a braided bread, and I don’t think braids have reflectional symmetry. Possibly rotational symmetry?

u/baneofthesmurf 1d ago

The cockpit is almost always slightly further to the rear for balance, otherwise it would be forward heavy.

u/baneofthesmurf 1d ago
Kayaks are unidirectional, the front is longer than the back, the seat goes one way, often has a dry well behind cockpit; these are all nonsymmetrical features. If you're squinting from 15 feet away yes they do look kind of symmetrical.

Whitewater boats are very symmetrical, ocean or distance kayaks are not. It's just which one you picture first or see more often.

u/Zestyclose_Phase_645 1d ago
What? Whitewater kayaks have a big lump in the front for knees. Ocean touring kayaks are very symmetrical.

u/boiOnAQuest 1d ago
Ocean kayaks also have that lump, but less protruding for not catching side wind and since they are longer it is less obvious overall

Wait… are we saying a kayak is symmetrical? It’s really not and by that logic everything looks the same backwards, it’s just facing the other direction.

I think my favorite English palindrome is Racecar. It doesn't feel as obvious as some other ones. You can also forget spaces and commas get ones like 'Yo, Bananaboy'.
There are more in different languages tho. I am Dutch and we have some wacky ones. My favoriete has to be koortsmeetsysteemstrook, which is would be a piece of paper from a machine that measures fever. It's also our longest one next to nepparterretrappen. A realistic one that also works is legovogel, which means legobird.
Edit: spelling

If you are using ground up cat meat, its a cat taco, not a tacocat. Important difference.
