The pweor of the hmuan mnid.
Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in
waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht
the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a
total mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm.
Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef,
but the wrod as a wlohe.
Amzanig huh?

Taht is srot of ture, but it deos not tlel the wlohe sorty. It is
rieealtvly esay wtih sroht wrods, but not so esay wtih legonr wdros. Msot
cetonnt wdros in Esinglh are sveen leertts lnog or leognr -- the mroe
leretts terhe are in a wrod, the mroe dulcifift and caipcetmold it bmeecos
to cletrorcy infietdy them wehn the ltrtees are ragnearerd. Warhees, more
diiivutnme and cmoomn wrdos lkie "blal" and "baer" raimen mltsoy ungnchead
and esay to rizocenge, lgneor, less cmoomn wdros, like "pltlooiun" and
"soulamitunes" caghne saillbattunsy to the pniot werhe rnciooitegn is
srclceay pbsslioe. Fmrrhtrouee, this atiibly smtes form a garet deal of
enpicerexe rindaeg cretolcry slelepd wdros -- olny plopee who can adrealy
raed pelictroinfy can do this tsak. Tihs tirck does not reeavl mcuh aoubt
the pscroes of lnnreaig to raed -- it only ietaindcs that hhligy slielkd
rrdeaes are so pectacred wtih txet tehy can omoercve moinr informieepcts
(epshaims on the word "moinr") in the pnirt to aesccs mnnaeig.
Oh, and by the way, terhe nveer was any rcsaeerh of tihs srot ccountded at
Cridbagme or any oehtr usrivetniy. Taht prat is ceepomlty urutne.
There's an analysis of the story by a real Cambridge University resarcher
And you can jblmue yuor own txet hree:
Sadntby for a folod of jblmued txet psitngos form the usaul sectupss.

Yebbut that wouldn't account for the correct replies or correct items given
to a request in shops/pubs/cafes ;-)

Perhaps they were all deaf, but were very proficient in lip reading. :)cou
Rabbit...

Proficient in Suvernland ??? ;-)
David C...

Naturally, we have had to be, since so many out-landers have moved in.
Not so sure about the restaurant in Oostburg, but it's possible that
English wasn't their 1st or 2nd language.....:-)

Rabbit...
