Believe It Or Not, You Can Read It!

I thought this was really interesting. :)

I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the huamn mnid aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porblem. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by islef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh?

I must admit that I was totally blown away by that! I suppose it is a good thing that our minds were created to read like that since the spelling on the internet is aewufl! ;)

I'm stunned! It's really an amazing thing how our mind "reads" things!!!

I've always told my mom that I didn't need to learn to spell! (Just kidding!) I am an awful speller!

hi Emily!! I've seen this before and it blows my mind each time - I can read it partly from memory now, but it is quite interesting!! But doesn't it take more time to spell the wrong way? But when I accidentally spell something wrong, maybe I should just leave it because "they'll figure it out anyway!""

Merry Christmas to you!!

Love,
Ruth Ann
