mrpez Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Alright this probably will probably get locked, I didn't notice how many people have seen it. But for those of you who haven't, you can still enjoy it lol. READ BEFORE YOU RESPOND (Read the entire post and the small text before telling me I can't spell)! 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! Can you read it easily? I could read it as if it wasn't even scrambled. Translation below in small script so you can't look at first glance. Our brains are like machines, so efficient. :D Couldn't believe that I could actually understand what I was reading. The phenomenal power of the human mind, according to a researcher at Cambridge University, it doesn't matter in what order the letters in a word are, the only important thing is that the 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 and I always thought spelling was important! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubsa Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I remember getting to this concept 3-4 years ago in school, was great fun :) I'm guessing there might be a link to this and dyslexia, but that's just an assumption. No doubt there'd be a bunch of cool research on this on Google, but I wouldn't exactly know where to begin with my keywords :P "Jumbled up words which still actually make sense to me...please?" This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

assassin_696 Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Yeah this is pretty cool, saw it a while back and it amazed me then. But...research at Cambridge University? I'm slightly doubtful, probably just added to lend it a bit of credibility. Fun none the less.

FalconBomba Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I saw this around december last year, was in a guy's Bio on EVE and yeah, it was Cambridge then too. My science teacher can't spell at all so I guess this is good for her... I just wish I knew some of those words before she screws them up :?

Yeah, the study was actually carried out by some professors at CB university. 8-) This is such an old article though, I can't find the sources.
