About this tool
Text Reverser
Free Text Reverser to reverse characters, words or lines instantly in your browser for text experiments, lists, puzzles and formatting tasks.
About the Text Reverser
Text Reverser provides three useful transformations: reverse individual characters, reverse word order, or reverse the order of lines. It is a lightweight utility for experiments, puzzles, formatting and text manipulation.
How to use this tool
Paste text, choose the reversal mode and run the tool. Character reversal changes the sequence of characters; word reversal changes word order while keeping each word intact; line reversal changes the order of lines.
- Open the Text Reverser page on Tervilo.
- Enter or paste the text you want to work with.
- Choose any options relevant to the task.
- Run the tool and review the result before copying or publishing it.
How the calculation or transformation works
The tool operates on the text sequence in the browser. It is not a language-aware transformation and does not attempt to preserve semantic meaning, punctuation conventions or bidirectional-script typography.
Common uses
- Text experiments
- Puzzle and coding exercises
- Reordering lists

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I reverse only the lines?
Yes. Choose the Lines option to reverse line order without reversing the characters inside each line.
Does reversing text preserve meaning?
No. Reversal is a string transformation and is not intended to preserve language meaning.
