i wanna see how many people can figure this brain teaser out!..good luck
Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in waht oerdr the ltteres in a wrod are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is taht the frsit and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. If you can raed tihs, psot it to yuor wlal. Olny 55% of plepoe can.
thankfully i had no bother reading that but i was wondering if 55% of people can read this ok and it says in the statement that the human mind does not read every letter by itself but the word as a whole, what do the the rest, (45% of people) see then?
According to a research at Cambridge University, it doesn't 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. This is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself, but the word as a whole. If you can read this, post it to your wall. Only 55% of people can.
The 45% of people who can NOT read this do not know how to spell the words so the whole word does not register in their minds. I wonder what they see when they read this?
I am in the 55% of people can make it maybe? I can write the words and it is 69.

This is interesting what does it say?............. just kidding. I'm 1 in 55%
its a different percent every time I see it. yould think the folks at Cambridge could get thier numbers right.
I read it no problem and at the same pace I normally would. I really thought I should have stumbled a bit. I bet a lot of it has to do with us seeing the words in lower case. The letter differences might be so well established in our heads it doesn't matter the order as long as we see them. I bet with all caps this would never work since the letters would be too similar.
I can read it too. The reason I think it wouldn't work in capital letters is that the shape of the word helps you identify it.
