The human brain doesn't read letters, it recognizes whole words

Try reading this at normal speed. I read all of it and missed about 2-3 words.

Yes, I saw this at least 5 diffeRent times in 2006.

Doesn't work for all words. Most of them come naturally but "rset" doesn't read like rest and "toshe" was confusing as well.

Old news. I wonder if it works with other languages besides English, as per sample. Maybe if you grow up with a certain language reading it scramlbed may not be a problem.

bah thats not one word

 

[dennilfloss]

Doesn't work well for those of us who learned to read by adding letters into syllables and using etymology to understand meanings, i.e. the old-fashioned way. For us this requires an effort at guessing/deducing what each word is.

Hebrews knew this thousands of years ago.
Yes, old news.

in other news, the sky is blue, water is wet, and dogshit stinks (man i wish i could remember the original poster of this, i LOVE it)

anywyas...it still boggles my mind why there are so many grammar/spelling nazi's on the forums...obviously they can read it, so wtf is the deal?

 

[Slackware]

All you yelling repost, yeah, you may have a thread bookmarked (god knows why) but the rest of you.

Besides, i'm brand new to this forum and i liked the challenge, how about you idiots that have seen a thread before just exit it and STFU, how hard is that, really?

I got 100% and English isn't even my first language.

In other news, why are there so many idiots stating that it is a repost, especially by saying stupid ****** like "the sky is blue" it's not blue here, it's grey/white, water is only wet unless you are less wet than water and dogshit... wll you got one right, i guess that makes your mommy proud, you got a C in this exercise that is , if you shut up or you'll surely get an F for geing Fvcking stupid.

The fact that even Google hasn't changed their logo for today tells me that whatever it is can't be very important.
