Good example, and yes, it seems to be true.

I wonder if a dyslexic person would find it easier or harder to read stuff written garbled like that....

One thing they forget to mention is that the test is only relevant to cultures for whom the language of the test is their native written language.

So it's not an excuse for some of the appalling sodomising of the written English language that goes on in Internet forums.

And by the way? It's "Did you KNOW?"

yep seen it before and I find it very interesting, my son is dyslexic and he read it fine although he knew it was spelt wrongly he found it no easier or harder than normal reading.

So all the hours I spent learning to spell have been wasted. All you need to konw is the fsrit and the lsat letter.

Not quite. You need a close facsimile of the word shape to be successful as well.
