Lovely one.

A little bugging to read but still recognisable...
I can read that at normal speed.It’s so strange. It works better if you don’t pause to wonder over each word. when I examine each word, I get confused, but if I just speed through it, it feels like each word is correct. So strange!
I can't believe that only 55 out of 100 people can read that - the rest of the paragraph seems to contradict that fact.
I'm in medical school right now, and we were studying this perception phenomenon the other day. The ratio of 55/100 is entirely too much of an underestimation. Basically, anyone who can normally process the English language and read it should have the capacity to overcome the misordering of the inside letters because this is an inherent property of the way the brain perceives written language.
Being mildly dyslexic (oh yeah, I'm a dyslexic Japanese dude), I just read the above fine. I don't notice misspelling much myself. I just don't see it much. I sometimes wonder why I paint more like Picasso even if I don't intend to. At least, JFK had dyslexia.

Some people tend to be dyslexic in a foreign language. But, I'm so in both English and Japanese. But, somehow I managed to be No.1 in class when I was in middle school in Japan. Then, I slipped later on (and came back somehow strong and got a master's with honors.)
I only had to pause once to read the whole thing. It's really amazing that one can recognize words just by scanning through the first and the last letters.
yes lol....but I've heard it only works with a language like english which has many small words....I think with french or so it wouldn't work
Hi TokyoOGHi 。

this is what i said before to someone who posted the same bulleting,,,

just want to let u know, only a small amount of people can't read in this form, hence your statistic is wrong. And those who can't read in these forms are called dyslexic.
i read this. at first, i didn't understand what it is. after i read first sentence, i got it. it is like a quiz.
anyway, i can read this with guess...but always i am like that....because my english is poor and my vocabulary is really few.
so, if there were more difficult word, i wouldn't read this fluently. haha
Yea, spelling is important, sometimes, hihi
Amazing that one can read this mess of words, but I could without any problems
Uh, folks, this thing is just chain-email nonsense. There never was any such research at Cambridge, and the 55/100 number is of course pure fantasy.

As for why it works... it doesn't. The reason you can read the text is because the long words are only slightly jumbled. The text talks about "Cmabrigde Uinervtisy". Easy to read, right? Sure, because only a few letters are swapped. What if it talked about "Cbdgiarme Ustreiinvy"?

In other words, the whole thing is bullshit. Please don't spread it!
I think claiming that its bullshit is a little over doing it. Although it may not be the amazing phenomena that it was made out to be, it is still none the less interesting that the human brain works in this way. And people can decide for themselves if it is bullshit or not fenomas. Your request to "not spread it" is really going over the top. You act like it was a virus that is infecting the minds of our youth or something. Its only a stupid word/mind game. And some people that have not seen it still do find it interesting. Thats why I stated in the begining that this is for the people that missed it last time. Sorry if it insults your intellegence. I acknowledge the fact that you are a very smart person. And thank you for helping us less intellegent people to understand this.
wow, i just wonder now if it works in any other languages.
I love that.

It works in most romantic languages far as I know. Like it works for German and Italian. Only ones I know off the top of my head.

What can I say? I have a thing about misinformation. I try to fight it where I can. At the very least though, the stuff about the "cambridge study" and its results are fiction.

#23 fenomas.. Now thta is waht I was taklnig abuot. That information was fasinating and I am sure many people will really appreciate your contribution to this thread. I for one had never seen this broken down to that level and explained so well as in that link you posted. I saved it to my computer for future reference. I am so glad I reposted this and that you responded the way you did. This is a sincere thank you from me personally. You really are as smart as I suspected :)
Cheers mate! I should have posted the link first off but I was had trouble finding it.
Fenomas you have a point ... im sure anyone who can properly understand english read that with a breeze... but as you scrambled the cambridge university in your post it was much harder to understand...
thats something a kid can make up and spread ^-^... although it is a nice trick.
Seems like you have to be pretty fluent in a language for it to work. Picture image based languages like Japanese etc.. will not work with this system. This also explains why 6 editors at a magazine or newpaper can still miss little mistakes. They don`t see them because they just don`t matter. SO WHY WORRY ABOUT SPELLING AT ALL? I guess you have to already have the correct word memorised inorder to skip letters and form the correct intended word. It doesn`t work if you have no clue as to what should be coming next.
i could read it yeah!
But i think this is not that difficult.
