Its pretty interesting i though.

Side Note:
I could not believe that i could actually understand what i was reading. The phenomenal power of the human mind , according to research at Cambrige University , it doesnt matter in what order the letters in a word are , the only important thing i stha tthe first and last letter be in the right place.

The rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without a problem. This is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself , but the word as a whole . Amazing huh? yeah i always thought spelling was important! if yo ucan read tihs repost it.

Yes i fully agree! YAY FOR BEEN OK FOR TYPOS!@

No!!! Learn to spell or GTFO!!!

It's so true, it's amazing!!

Wow. Taht is anizmag.

However you do realise that non native english speakers would have a smudgeon of a problem with your garbled writing don't you?

Spelling does matter!!!It is ptrtey interesting though.

Hey it's nice!

Read this ages ago from somewhere, yes its quite interesting on how the mind works.
Also, should have been in Off-Topic not 40K discussion

I've seen this before somewhere, it's damn amazing and rather easy to read the original message.....

I thought this was going to be a link to the Harvard study from ages ago about this exact thing.

It seems to crop up every so often.

Why is the lint in my belly button always dark blue?

And why must you always raise your voice over the smallest of things Brian?

Such are the mysteries of life.

On.

Could read it fine.

I know which study your talking about, and I believe they said only 55% or something like that of people could actually do this.

Really, I have yet to see anyone actually link it to any research published to show that it's anything more than a silly spam message that people like passing around. At least it's been altered from its original form where it said that spelling didn't matter at all, and only the first and last letters mattered - really what makes this readable is the fact that all the words have the correct letters and length, so the mind's tendency towards pattern recognition recognizing what letters are there and where they should be helps aid in comprehension, as well the brain's use of context to predict what should be coming next. It also helps that all the words are generally short. If the words were actually misspelled, instead of being rearranged, and the content was not as context predictive, it would be a lot harder to read.

Well I'm dyslexic, and it gave me a fething migraine.

One thing that I like in my language,the words are written as they are spoken.
