After doing a bit of research I found that the Cambridge study wasn’t totally accurate. There are many factors that allow you to be able to read the above paragraph. 27 of 74 words above have not been scrambled because they are 1, 2, or 3 letter words. This helps to maintain the grammatical structure of the sentence. 20 of the 74 words are four letter which means that only two letters have been transposed. Its very simple for a person to decode a 4 letter words. Basically this means that 63% of this sentence is not even scrambled. 15 of the words are 5-6 letters long which are only moderately difficult to decode. This leaves 20% of the words in the above paragraph which are difficult to unscramble. Also when words are in context they’re much easier to figure out what word goes there based on the letters available.

There are several words that have permutations that are much more difficult to decode. For instance if you group all the consonants together and leaving the vowels grouped together makes it much more difficult. I have to admit it’s pretty impressive that you can read scrambled letters even if only 20% of the words are hard to decode but not quite as impressive as I first thought. If you’re interested in scrambling up your own words visit the Word Scrambler.

Um.... -_-;;;... that actually looks like the way that some of my "older" family members would type.

Wow, it sounds like Latin ;D

[¿ Jesse Pawman ?]

I actually learned this in sixth grade.

[Octavia]

I was browsing and found that...thought it'd be fun to post...to see how many people can actually read it. plus you can make your own there's an automatic word scrambler on the site...

This still boggles my mind...even though i've read it many times I can almost read it perfectly except for a few words....but that's amazing how the brain work's isn't it?

[WingedZephyr]

For a few seconds I thought "pervresed" was "perversed" instead of "preserved."

And sure, it's possible to decode spelling like that, but who in their right mind would enjoy making their mind work harder just to understand a single sentence?

[Pibi]

Agree... for me it's even harder cause it's not my mother tongue ^^
Heheh, a lot of speculations  :ded:

At first this thing confused my furry mind i was able to read it clearly it just thaat i never have seen anything like this before. It is actually really cool.

[Octavia]

But you've gotta remember...in order to get it... the first and last letters of the words MUST remain in the same spot...the other letter? Can be where ever the hell they feel like it...


example~ epmaxle

example- xaelpem   <---this is more of a word jumble

Just so you know

[ephemral]

thaat

plus typos don't help either.  :snicker:

[KatTheCatCalledTasha]

I thought as much...I can't decode some of the words - or you could decode them incorrectly. I couldn't actually read one of the words in that....
