word game

What is the longest word you can come up with that is the same forward and backward.

For example:

tot is tot forward or backward
noon is noon forward or backward

I've got a 7 letter word but I won't tell you guys because someone may know what it is.

"The longest single English word in common usage which is a palindrome is REDIVIDER, although the contrived chemical term DETARTRATED is two letters longer. In Finnish there is a 25-letter palindromic word: SOLUTOMAATTIMITTAAMOTULOS which means the result from a measurement laboratory for tomatoes, although technically it is a compound of four words. There is also the equally long SAIPPUAKUPPINIPPUKAUPPIAS which means soap cup trader."

anamana

Hmmm... now I can't remember.
