This is kind of cool.... Don't even think about using spell check!!!!!!!! fi yuo cna raed tihs, yuo hvae a sgtrane mnid too. Cna yuo raed tihs? Olny 55 plepoe out of 100 can.
i cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in waht oerdr the ltteres in a wrod are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is taht the frsit and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it whotuit a pboerlm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Azanmig huh? yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt!

I'd seen that before, but not such a long passage. No wonder it's hard to catch typos.

Yeah, I could read it. I just can't figure out if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Lori

Yes, easy. Probably why I usually don't catch my typos - everything looks correct.
I read something about this phenomenon a while back. That article seemed to say (if I remember correctly) that most people could read this, at least a lot more than 55%. Just curious, anyone not able to read it?
Something I just noticed. Reading it to yourself like you are reading a book is easy. Try reading it out loud - not as easy!

I could read it, too. It is interesting........makes you wonder if we can read it like that, why does someone with dyslexia have problems reading when the letters are in the right order? ?
