A mirror turns left into right. When each letter is mirrored in its own place, the letters stay in the order S, M, I, L, E, and every letter is reversed: a letter that is the same on both sides of a vertical line through its middle (here M and I) keeps its shape, while S, L and E face the other way.

Tip: The capital letters that look the same in a mirror are A, H, I, M, O, T, U, V, W, X, Y, the letters with a vertical line of symmetry.
