I was able to read the entire thing and understand, very good, but I hope no one decides to spell like that on the forum wink.gif Also, I will move this to the Languages board.

Yes I was amazed that I could read and understand the entire paragraph! Don't let FarSeer see the spelling though, she might not be able to recover wink.gif

I received this in an e-mail a while back. At first it does seem amazing, but think about it. We use this abiity all the time. If not, any time a word was mispelled you wouldn't be able to figure out what it was supposed to say.

Wow. That's just amazing how our brains can decode all of that jumble. Do you have a link for that information?

I don't have a link, I'm sorry. My daughter came across it and she can't remember where she found it.

It only works if the first and last letter of the word are in the correct position. If you scramble the complete word, the message makes absolutely no sense at all.

I saw the scrambled letters thing a few months back on another message board. I thought it was neat that our minds can do that. This might be why it is tough to proofread a paper. If you are not careful you mind will automatically correct any misspelled word. Add that to the fact that when proofreading your own work you know what you meant to write/type it's a wonder anyone can catch anything.

Even spellcheck is not infallible.

wow, it is cool. But it's nothing compared to the other powers of the brain, if you want to look at that. Just look at how much you learn in the three first years and that would be enough- walking, talking, manners, body language, and much much more. cool.gif
