Upside-down writing consists of writing in one direction and in the opposite direction compared to the usual direction and direction.
dCode distinguishes writing in reverse, in the opposite direction from right to left (which modifies the usual writing direction) and writing upside down (rotation of words or characters by 180°).
Writing upside down is complicated because the tools and interfaces are not designed for this type of display.
However, there are alternative methods, such as using Unicode characters. Indeed, some characters defined by the Unicode standard correspond (more or less well) to writing upside down characters commonly used in French.
Here is a possible alphabet for all the letters flipped/turned upside down:
a upside down: | ɐ |
---|---|
b upside down: | q |
c upside down: | ɔ |
d upside down: | p |
e upside down: | ǝ |
f upside down: | ɟ |
g upside down: | ƃ |
h upside down: | ɥ |
i upside down: | ı |
j upside down: | ɾ |
k upside down: | ʞ |
l upside down: | ˥ |
m upside down: | ɯ |
n upside down: | u |
o upside down: | o |
p upside down: | d |
q upside down: | b |
r upside down: | ɹ |
s upside down: | s |
t upside down: | ʇ |
u upside down: | n |
v upside down: | ʌ |
w upside down: | ʍ |
x upside down: | x |
y upside down: | ʎ |
z upside down: | z |
Example: dCode becomes ǝpoϽp or I love you becomes noʎ ǝʌoן I (copy/paste the result)
The correspondence is not always ideal, like the alignment (higher or lower letter). Some letters stay the same like O, S, X or Z because they have central symmetry.
If a user experience black squares, then update Unicode system fonts.
dCode writes/inverts uppercase characters upside down through Unicode (but some are not very nice).
dCode writes digits and numbers characters upside down with Unicode (but some are not well formed).
For your information, some Roman numerals are written with letters upside down.
Accents and diacritics in text are not flipped, these are not taken into account as there are not any upside down characters possible with Unicode.
Inverted symbols are almost absent from the Unicode standard, and therefore, with a few exceptions, it is impossible to write them backwards.
Writing a message upside down once, then rewriting it upside down means writing it back to its original position. So by asking dCode to write backwards a message that is already upside down, it will return to its position.
dCode can be copy-pasted, but not all messaging software can manage this character encoding.
