#Some people won't get it

This is not the only sentence in English that read same when read backward. This is palindrome.

See this one here,

"Rise to vote, sir."

I have a python program that get any English sentence as input, search through all the strings and produce the reverse of such word.

what makes it a phrase palindrome and a sentence palindrome.
You intend to write " what makes it a phrase palindrome and not a sentence palindrome" right?

Alright, "Madam i'm Adam" it's a phrase.

abeg this thin nor make any sense reading it backwards. leme try "was it a car or a cat I saw" now backwards, "was I cat a or car a it saw". how come its giving same meaning? enlightenment pls

Was it a car I saw o
Or a cat I saw
Was I tac a ro

Was i+t, then seperate a from c, add c to a and r to form "car"and separate o...it gives you was it a car o.. Or alternatively
Or a cat I saw
From the end backward, you have was, add I to t to form "it", seperate a on its own, add c and a and r together to form "car" and then o on its own, you will have: was it a car I saw o

Is it crazy how saying sentences backwards creates backwards sentences saying how crazy it is?

This isn't exactly a palindrome, though.
Thank yousmiley

Its a palindrome. We have several palindromic words. I think this is my first time of seeing a palindrome as a sentence. Nice one!
I bet you don't know what you're talking about...you can't possibly know what palindrome is with this thrash you typed:. Does that sentence make sense to you as palimdromic

Palindromes often consist of a sentence or phrase, e.g., "Eva, can I stab bats in a cave?", "Mr. Owl ate my metal worm", "Was it a car or a cat I saw?", "A nut for a jar of tuna", "Do geese see God?", "Ma is as selfless as I am", "On a clover, if alive erupts a vast pure evil, a fire volcano", "Dammit, I'm mad!","Dog, as a devil deified, lived as a god.", "Not so, Boston.","A Toyota's a Toyota", "Go hang a salami, I'm a lasagna hog", "A Santa lived as a devil at NASA", and "An igloo! Cool, Gina!". Punctuation, capitalization, and spaces are usually ignored. Some, such as "Rats live on no evil star", "Live on time, emit no evil", and "Step on no pets", include the spaces.
