Answer 2

Below is the translation of the question for those who don't understand:

I couldnt beleive that I could actually understand what I was reading. The phaenominal power of the human mind, according to a researcher at Cambrdge University, It does'nt matter in what order the letters in a word are, the only important thing is that the first and last letter be in the right place. The rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without a problem. This is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself, but the word as a whole. Amazing huh? Yeah and I always though spelling was important! If you can read this forward it

Answer 3

If you can read this, you have a strange mind too
Can you read this? Only 55 people can.

I can read it! See!

Answer 4

Yes of course. To day only I came to know this phenomenon. I used to wonder sometime that even the misspelled word sometimes brings ruin in life. I consider that there is a great truth hidden behind. I sometimes used to astonish why certain words "WIN" and why certain words bring utter "DEBACLE". Human mind and language (both written and spoken::consonants & diaelects)have better interaction as language is the toll for mind to get activated. For examples, even the dumb and deaf react to controls in [mother tounge] language.

Answer 5

Yeah, I can read it. I knew how to read before I set foot in school. But people who grew up with the "see - say" method are gonna have trouble --worse-- they are going to say they understand it but actually MISUNDERSTAND any terms that aren't in their vocabulary.

So the first and last letter trick can blow up and result in misunderstanding if its being read by someone who isn't a reader, for example, a barely literate couch potato.

Answer 6

Yeah, I've seen this on Myspace about 20 times already. The letters are just switched around, but our brain can still understand it.

Answer 7

yes. Everyone can. It's how the human eye works. As long as the first and last letter are in place, then we can read the word. Just read the paragraph and it answers your own question.

Answer 8

Yeah i can read it
It is amazinf really.

Done something similar before. The trick is to not to concentrate. Its like a magic eye picture: just relax and its easy!

Answer 9

I could read all those mispelled words without a problem, I find it hard to believe only 55 people can too

Answer 10

Yes I can read it too !! I just recently saw something on the tube about this phenomena. Very cool.
