(5)   Ambigrams People of my age are rightly interested in heart, angiography, angioplasty and angiograms; but not much interested in Ambigrams .  An Ambigram is an image of a written word or phrase that is intended or able to be oriented in either of two ways for viewing or reading.

Consequently a group was started and daily a word is being discussed in the group as ...
