Got this item through an email message. Not much to be said about it. If you open the article, you’ll see another photo that explains the illusion. It’s really simple! An ambigram, AKA an inversion or flipscript is a graphical figure that spells out a word, not only in its form as presented, but also in another direction or orientation. Text can consist of a few words, and the text spelled out in the other direction or orientation is often the same, but can also be different. Now to give you all some short history lesson! (I copy pasted this from Wikipedia) – The term “ambigram” was first used to mean “ambiguous anagram” by Judith E. Bagai, a former editor of The Enigma, the official organ of The National Puzzlers’ League. According to John Langdon, ambigrams were independently invented by himself and by Scott Kim in the 1970s. Kim used the name Inversions as the title of his first collection in 1981. I have linked some words in this text with appropriate ambigram examples. Check them if you wish!

amor – love in Portuguese and Spanish
Sometime you just need a creative eye to see these things. Neither way round says amot or lowe, it’s a shame some can’t see this very well crafted design. It brilliant
Should have waited till Valentine’s Day. I would want something like that with my name.
A nice ambigram but little forced. I think that is why some people reads it as lowe or amot…
The first one I see in two languages. By the way, love is amor in spanish and portuguese but in french is amour…
Look it says amor its cute and amor means love in a lot of launguages…just not english WHY MUST WE BE DIFFERENT?
John Langdon was one of the men who signed the constitution. I don’t think he was alive in 1980… Cool illusion though!
Lol the first one says Amor which means cupid. here : Amor is Latin, Galician, Catalan, Portuguese, Romanian and Spanish for love
Amor is an alternative name for Cupid, the Roman god of love. His equivalent is Eros in Greek mythology.
Cupid = Little angle of love me thinks its right…
Have you see this one too?

Amor is the Greece god of love, called Cupido in Latin. He is marked by his arrows which he fires at people to let them fall in love. Nice ambigram.
