Message  MurielB Jeu 1 Oct - 16:36

Gérard you are right, all the more so since you write American English. I have checked out on the internet. They confirm that the words 'forwards' and "backwards" are  still used in Britain. Though it is not sure how much longer it will be around, as more and more of the younger generation seem to pick up their language from TV, and their interests seem to be dominated by the American language.

Muriel,
It's written in the words you quoted:
In AmE, we use them interchangeably. (Although backwards and forwards are less common.) – Peter Shor Mar 30 '13 at 15:03
-ward(s): The two forms are so nearly synonymous…choice between them is mostly determined by some notion of euphony in the particular context...
