Believe it or not you can read it.

I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid. Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer inwaht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? yaeh and I awlyas thought slpeling was ipmorantt.

What was typoglycemia? What are you talking about? You should have given us an example to make your point.

Seriously, as someone who had taught her children to read, I think only a person who has already learned to read would be able to read with the letters messed up.

Yep.

You have to be able to read the correct way before your brain can process the incorrect spelling.

Well, there is an additional dimension to this. I was able to read, comfortably, the entire post, part of it quite quickly, yet I find that obvious misspellings bring my reading to a halt, why typos remain mostly invisible.

Why is that?
