“Relaly” was the first misspelling I saw, but I noticed all of them while I was waiting for the page to load. I think that the shape of “relaly” looks funny to me because I rely on the l’s being together to recognize the shape of the word.
I think that the order I noticed the misspellings was
relaly
wreid
tihs
sutff

and to Svt4Him, I’ve always read Dyslexics of the world UNTIE! as Dyslexics of the world UNITE! if I just smekmid over it.
(btw, smekmid is a new word of mine! no one can steal it! unless you tell me what it really means which I know many of you most likely already CAN… oh well, too bad.) sniff sniff tear
I saw this also in another forum and I did find it really amazing how the brain can automatically recognise what each word is.
Unfortunately, it really does make me squirm to read text in that format. I guess you could say that I’m a real “stickler” for correct grammar and spelling. I can’t stand seeing mis-spelled words! But for the purpose of this exercise I sat and read it all!
