This is very unusual, but if you are an English speaker, it does seem to work. Says something for how our brains are wired for reading, huh?

Taht raelly farekd me out! I toaltly udnretosod taht!

Very interesting Carolyn, I also was able to understand it

Waht rlealy freacked me out is tha I udneroostd Lornas message without realiseing it was done the same way?LOL.

If your deslexix (sp?) (like me) it just takes a little longer. A couple of times I hade to sound out the word for a second in order to understand it. But if I can read it any one can. I do think that there is a draw back all the words have to be readly avaible. Scientific words or words that are in general hard to sound out may be harder to do this with.

That's super cool I am still slightly dyslexic too (Thank the lord of the spell checkers ) but that cool

When at school I was in the special class cs of my spelling, and I remember we had to write what we wanted to achieve, and I wrote "I want to improve my spaelling" or something like that, sis took the pee out of me for ages for that

Hi all,

Yeah, Carolynn, that was fun. I'd done this little test before and I'm just as amazed now as I was back then.

Nope, I guess not.

I can understand some of that you know lol

What I really wonder is wheather or not the oppisite is true, that is can you keep a word ??????????????????? ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhh

Sophie xx

What I really wonder, though, is whether or not the opposite is true (that is, can you keep a word unchanged, except for interchanging its first and last letters, and still understand what's written?).

Nope, I guess not!

Love,
CJ

HI CJ!!!

I could read your backwards words almost as easily as the other way, amazingly enough, though like Sophie, the backward unchanged reqired a bit of a second look. By then the context had helped, and I sorta wonder if the gist of the sentence from the words before don't help sort out the words following?

Anyway, amusing, huh!

Love,

Too much talent CJ, I finally figured it out, but my question is how long did it tkae you to compose it? - Don't answer that as it may tell more than you want us to know??!!
Love,

Hi all,

Gals,

I'll tell you anyway! It didn't take me all that long (two or three minutes at most). My mind is sort of bizarrely wired, when it comes to words. Although I'm not (and have never been) dyslexic, I do have very strong schizoid personality traits (not schizophrenic--schizoid). These are personality traits, not a disorder; there's a big difference. This is also a self-diagnosis, by the way. Anyway, some of those traits are: rich imagination; solitary leisure and hobbies; some occasional difficulty in relating to others emotionally; discomfort in social situations; and, especially in my case, a fetish for wordplay. I have this habit that my friends find sometimes amusing, sometimes irritating: I spontaneously hear and read words backwards, whether they be names or titles or what have you. I can't help myself. I see a word, even for the very first time, and my brain registers it in all kinds of directions--forward, backward, and rearranged. Within a few seconds, anagrams of a given word will start popping up in my head unbidden. I saw a name on the CDDF a couple of days ago that read, "Enelrad" and I immediately saw "Enelrad," "Darlene," (not necessarily our own Darlene, I think), and "Real End." I annoy myself sometimes! I'm not too hard on myself, though. The way I see it, this personality trait triples my vocabulary.

Love,
CJ

I don't suppose it's very common, and I guess context pretty much sorts things out, but what of ambiguities like dart and drat? I know it's kind of a bad example (what ambiguity?), but I'm sure there are other, less trivial instances.

CJ I think I did laugh at yours too. Especially the when you said, "Nope I guess not"

You all are so much fun!!!

Hi CJ,

Thanks for explaining how your mind works, I wondered about the kind of mind that would pick something like that up. I would never had recognized that had it not being pointed out.
