What is the name for a word that spelled backwards forms another word?

∙ 13y ago
Words or phrases that produce the same word(s) when spelled backward are called palindromes. However, there is no specific widely-accepted term that identifies words that are the reverse spelling of other, different words. They would be a unique form of an anagram of the word or phrase.
Some suggested terms are
- semordnilaps
- volvograms
- anadromes
- heteropalindromes
- semi-palindromes
- half-palindromes
- reversgrams
- mynoretehs
- reversible anagrams
- word reversals
