I'm not a native English speaker, though Oxford Dictionaries[1] says gives this example for the word 'forward':
"In the normal order or sequence: the number was the same backwards as forwards"

There is an egregious typo in the spec for animation-fill-mode directions. The current values include "forwards" and "backwards", which are simply wrong. I implore you to deprecate these values and replace them with the correct spellings, "forward" and "backward", in the next revision of the specification.

It does not seem wrong to me either; these have been around for quite some time and used by native speakers on live sites for years. Barring evidence authors regularly stumble on this, deprecation/aliasing seems overkill.
