hi
Olny srmat poelpe can raed this.
I cdnuolt blveiee that I cluod aulaclty  uesdnatnrd what I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig  to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in what oredr the ltteers in a word are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is that the first and last ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can still raed it wouthit a porbelm.  This is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the word as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? Yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt! If you can raed this psas it on  !!

i got emailed this for some unknow reson

i am keen for all post to be like this.

My pet hate is people who use spell check and then don't check so insert homonyms like flare for flair etc etc.

but then that is surely the absolute definition of dyslexia..

you know the word...but not the spelling eg there, they're & their.

Spell checkers are next to useless for someone with dyslexia, as they just give a list of very similar 'looking' words, so they pick one at random.

Very true!

But there are spelling checkers on the market for dyslexics - I believe they show on screen a definition of each of the offered words.

A colleague of mine told me about one he's thinking of purchasing which gives an audio dicription of each option for the dyslexic. Knot that it intrests me as im grate at speling and gramma.
