Amazing - but true...

The jumbled word thing only really works with normal sentences rather than individual words.

It's far less easy with one-off words:

trorfeehe

betread

sscailptk

meirard

taicopl

hingelag

Rather than just look at the whole word, our brains seem to prefer logical lexical chunks for this test to work well.

There's no clear agreement on how our brains actually process reading though - just a bunch of theories. Studying them is a decent insomnia cure.

Donovan was regarded as a great player at Grimsby

 

I would be considered a great player at Grimsby

although I must admit, I am better than Kevin Donovan.

 

only when sober

 

lol

cunny funt

 

Well, on the face of it, that would seem to be the problem

as I am often "not sober"

However, having seen Mr.Donovan at close quarters, I'm not sure if he was in full control of his faculties either!

 

I like Hurdy Gurdy Man nt
