I clouondt bleivee taht it was psosbile to raed tihs letetr whtiouot
mcuh dfifciutly but raserach at cmabirgde uinrevitsy has sowhn
tath jsut a lnog as the frsit and lsat ltetres are crocerlty
palced in an wrod the pwoer of the hmaun barin wlil srot it out.
apapernlty wehn raeiding we see wrods as a wolhe not as spreatea
lertets. So mcuh for the iaompcntre of selpiling.

Yes, I hvae sene tihs svereal tmies in emials but smoe wrods are sitll dififcult to raed - eevn if the frist and lsta leterts are the smae as tehy shloud be.

Tkae "iaompcntre" I did not see taht as "importance" - it mdae no snese to me at all - I had to put it itno an agnaram wesbite to mkae snese of it!

I supospe the lnoger the wrod, the mroe dififuclt it is to udnertsand??

(PS - tehre is olny one 'i' in 'raeding' and in 'spleling')

In these types of passages, words that begin and end in vowels are usually harder to decipher, as they are not usually solid sounding letters. This is especially the case with 'importance', as in the passage it begins with 3 vowels, making it even less decipherable.
