My old work friend is dyslexic and she used to love sending me mixed up messages like that because they were no more difficult for her to read than regular writing.

Same principal. First and last letter in a word or first and last word in a sentence. Crazy trick. I wonder how well it works in other languages.

Wouldn't be very good at reading if stupid typos and ~~blinders~~ blunders like this tickled my consciousness. Not every language even cares what order you line those words up too much, go ahead and put the important words at the beginning (or the end if you're an asshole), conjugations will sort it out.

Edit: Fucking autocorrect almost got be again when I tried to fix the typo. I fucking typed blunders both times, a real word that exists and makes sense in context, unlike fucking blinders! Dumbass "AI" autocorrect!

No actually you proved just how robust it is.

[–] minorkeys@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

No didn't you. wrote You a sentence was what that difficult, to read. still reading It's.

Who needs 5 seconds to read a wrongly typed sentence?

[–] Smeagol666@crazypeople.online 4 points 2 weeks ago

Didn't asshole no you.

[–] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 4 points 2 weeks ago

What really fucked me up was the "to 5" instead of "for 5". The rest I glossed over and read the intention of the words....but the transition with a number in the sentence broke my flow and made me glitch out.

I've been on the Internet too long. Genuinely didn't notice anything wrong until I went to the comments and then went back and looked at it again.

ITT: lots of very smart people who don't read closely and would fail this test.

[–] chahn.chris@piefed.social 3 points 2 weeks ago

I immediately scrolled and read in less than 5 seconds, then I realized this didn’t way which 5 seconds was taken…

[–] TerraRoot@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

i wonder how this makes a grammar nazi feel.

especially because their claim that no communication is possible without perfect and unchanging rules of written language.
