Scully Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 This did the rounds some time ago. Apparently,as long as the first and last letter of each word are in the correct place then the brain unscrambles the word instantly, making it legible.

welshwarrior Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Seen it a few times before. Unlike PW it's got punctuation though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Change that to text type spelling and you have no chance. Your example also contains correct punctuation. Just a small point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Far to literate for here, that's a o level pass in this day and age. I like the one that has you speaking German by the end of it. Figgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So could you read it, as you have answered with the same explanation as written in the original post It's very clever stuff mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick miller Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Shouldn't that title be 'For all you gamramr ntus' instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't read it as have seen it before. Yes, it is clever, but anyone who can read can read it, for the reasons it explains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mentalmac Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 Seen it a few times before. Unlike PW it's got punctuation though. Au contraire, there should be a comma before 'share it'. Perhaps one after 'Yeah' too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwarrior Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 Au contraire, there should be a comma before 'share it'. Perhaps one after 'Yeah' too. But unfortunately we see very little or no punctuation in a lot of post this makes along and difficult read at time im not perfect and often rush but I do try to make it easier for the people to read when I can an big block of unbroken text and be quite hard work and can even have its meaning affected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard, because this forum has members from all walks of life and professions, sometimes you get some who are very literate and others who are better at other things. My other half is quite dyslexic and see's the amusing side of it but is excellent with maths and puts me to shame haha. Sometimes, after a long old rant on the forum, it's worthwhile to read back and when you take a breath - put one in for the readers too haha.

welshwarrior Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 As a dyslexic I have had to work incredibly hard on written English I would much rather just speak numbers work for me as well, but not so much the written word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
