Can you read this?

This was a study conducted at Cambridge university. The basic findings were that when we read a word, the brain processes the "shape" of the word and not the order in which the letters are. To identify the shape, the brain needs the first and last letters in the correct place, but anything in between can be in any order, all the letters should still be present however to give the correct shape/length.

I would say it's closer to a guesstimate that 93 people out of 100 can read it. I say this, because the brain will read the word and translate it automatically for you, the only people who may struggle are the on average 7% with learning difficulties.
