I've never had a problem with reading passages like this no matter how jumbled they appear to be. Isn't the human brain a wonderful thing?!!
Oh my I didn't even realize they were mixed up at first. This is awesome wonder what other amazing things we can do and not realize....
Hank, you are supposing that I have a brain! I could understand the posting--I speak three languages and read four--but haven't encountered this particular one before. You are constantly introducing me to new and different experiences!
That's interesting Calin that you could still read it. I am assuming English is not your first language?
This is posted in the Ripley's Museum (not sure if in all or in some or which one-we've been to a couple of them), but the explanation is that as long as the first and last letter are first and last then our brains read the words correctly....I was laughing as I first encountered this then and it still amuses and amazes me today.
