At first I thought you were a horrible typer, but as I read... I did not stumble, I did understand everything. Maybe this fact has to do with the brain putting words in a catagory. First, it finds the finds the first letter. The, I guess the brain recognises the size of the word. Then the right brain quickly rearranges it.,
Yes, that has been known for a while. The brain needs very little of the information that regards to everyday tasks because the mind works out schemas for everything...it has to. The Brain can't reprocess same information all over again evevryday, if it did then you wouldn't be able to funtion at all because the brain would be too busy configuring itself to even the most trivial and mundane of tasks. So yes...the mind expects very little of the real world stimulus of normal things we are used to, the rest it fills itself from long ago learned information and experience.
That was actually quite amazing upon the words my eyes were gazing I too thought you were joking around but as I read through it was totaly sound COOLPlease Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Unless of course we are all just illiterate it could be possible,a little,a bit. Now I have excuses for messing up words I can get away with spelling hroses and brids If anyone frowns and says"well where is your source?" I will tell them,"you fool! why it's god-of-course!"Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Peace Out
Amazing Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! I never thought a grammer/spelling maniac like me could read such a paragraph without fainting.... But after getting the main idea my hair set down again. Let's try it myself: Hlleo, tihs is a vrey suitpd snteecne, sncie ti si... AHHHHHH!! The terror. I can't go on. Good job in scaring the heck out of me Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
I think we're used to typos in words, and we're also good at guessing what a word should be from the context. The first paragraph in this thread can be read, but it is harder than a correctly-spelt one would be. What does this say? "Taws blirilg, and the stihly teovs did grye and gelmie in the wbae." Somewhat more difficult, isn't it, with the unfamiliar words? Unless, of course, you recognise the phrase for what it should be.
In the same vein, it has been demonstrated that people can read sentences consisting only rectangles. It seems we also recognize the shape of simply words.
GOD: Incredibly brilliant thread. Beeeeeeeautiful. For this you are God alone. Please marry me. There's a theory to language centered around this very property in the human brain that I've worked out, similar to the check bits that computers use in handling errors. The only example I've ever found to vouch for this was "Gvie em lbietry or gvei em daeht", by Paul Henry (name?) and nothing else. I'll be cutting and pasting you, God. You've made my fucking day.
You misspelled gmilbe. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! I also recall reading an article (although I cannot find a reference) that showed that we primarily use the top half of the letters in recognizing words. ~Raithere
That's not only e strength... I saw a test once in which you missed the meaning of the sentence because of your brain speed (however I don't remember where I saw it). There was also questions such as how many "o" is ther in this sentence... and that's crazy to see that even if you know that there's a difficulty, you still miss the good answer. That's the same with the color/word problem : green, red...
<i>You misspelled gmilbe.</i> Damn, you're right. Bt ppl can also cpe with wrng spelings, can't they?

I don't understand. "Wabe" is not a word, but yet that is the only other possible arrangement of those letters.
