DUBAI 9 October 2018: What was s special about yesterday.
Well, it was a palindrome date.
What does that mean?
It means the word or sequence of numbers can be read from left to right as well as from right to left – and still read the same.
For example, the words ‘madam’ or ‘mom’ are palindromes as they can be read forward and backward without a change in the spelling.
Similarly, yesterday’s date was 8th September 2018 or 8-10-18.
Get it?
Only the Americans won’t as their date format is month [10], date [8] and year [18].
