Tihs Is Jsut A Tset!
Aparpetnly you can slitl unedrtsnand waht a setnecne syas eevn if ervey wrod is splet wonrgly, as lnog as the frist and lsat lerttes are in the rghit plcae.

'hlep us Obi Wan Kneboi yuo're our olny hpoe'

'You dnot konw the poewr of the drak sdie'

'At lsat we can raveel orusleves to the Jdei, At lsat we can hvae regenve'

'Sutck up, hlaf wtited, srcfufy-lokonig nref-hreder'


apparently when you read, you only really look at the first and last letters and anything in between doesn't matter as much.
I think it works up to a point.

waht do you tnihk?

as an english perfectionist i'm quite a meticulous speller. however as long as it makes sense then bad spelling is ok i guess.

Sol - What's going on? Your comment was pretty funny! Pickles - I guess that is pretty interesting, however I am also a big grammar & spelling freak. I always prefer text to be written correctly.

I think reading misspelled words is easier if all the letters are there, but are in the wrong order, except the first and last as you say. However, if people use the wrong letters or the wrong number of letters, its much harder to read.

LOL, I agree with son of a bith, many commenters should try their best to spell right though. It is kind of anoying when you cant understand what someone is saying, although I can understand this.
