    They all have double letters twice, ie, Banana aa/nn, Dresser ee/ss, Grammar aa/mm, Potato, oo/tt, Revive ee/vv, Uneven nn/ee and Assess, ss/ss?

    Just a guess!

    If you take the first letter of the word and put it on as the last letter you can spell the word backwards-
    Banana
    ananaB -Banana
