Try radenig this I thugoht yuor rdarees mhgit be iternseted in tihs eiaml taht I rieveced: Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at an Elingsh uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteers are in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae we do not raed ervey lteter by itslef but the wrod as a wlohe. Ceehiro! Tony Sadgrove, Burwood ------------- I figured it was relevant in this forum considering past threads' subtopics on typing and spelling.  | ||

That's extremely freaky *g* One of those weird things that makes you think about the way your brain works and get slightly weirded out *G* I can see that the letters are out of order, but I can still read what the words are meant to be as quickly as I'd read them if they were written normally. Explains why so many people don't notice letter-swap typoes, I guess. | ||

Iltnsegnetiry I'm sdutynig tihs crsrootaivnel pnoheenmon at the Dptmnearet of Liuniigctss at Absytrytewh Uivsreitny and my exartrnairdoy doisiervecs waleoetderhlhy cndairotct the picsbeliud fdnngiis rrgdinaeg the rtlvaeie dfuictlify of ialtnstny ttalrisanng steennces. My rsceeerhars deplveeod a cnionevent ctnoiaptorn at hnasoa/tw.nartswdbvweos/utrtep:k./il taht dosnatterems that the hhpsteyios uuiqelny wrtaarns criieltidby if the aoussmpitn that the prreoecandpne of your wrods is not eendetxd is uueniqtolnabse. Aoilegpos for aidnoptg a cdocianorttry vwpiienot but, ttoheliacrley spkeaing, lgitehnneng the words can mnartafucue an iocnuurgons samenttet that is vlrtiauly isbpilechmoenrne. Or, if you prefer... Interestingly I'm studying this controversial phenomenon at the Department of Linguistics at Aberystwyth University and my extraordinary discoveries wholeheartedly contradict the publicised findings regarding the relative difficulty of instantly translating sentences. My researchers developed a convenient contraption at http://www.aardvarkbusiness.net/tool that demonstrates that the hypothesis uniquely warrants credibility if the assumption that the preponderance of your words is not extended is unquestionable. Apologies for adopting a contradictory viewpoint but, theoretically speaking, lengthening the words can manufacture an incongruous statement that is virtually incomprehensible. | ||

The trick seems to be in the positioning of the consonant,,,for example Perdcitbal is much easier to read than Pitrdecbtal what looks like just letters jumbled up randomly is probably a well worked out theory of vowel and consonant placement ok, how wanky do *I* sound... goes back into hideee-hole | ||
