Might cause a problem for anyone with dislexia. They see some of the letters back to front or in the wrong order to start off with. Easy for me as I did shorthand and vowels are rarely used.

that's interesting - i did read that relatively easily.

i suppose, i don't normally read whole sentences too, i just scan through and pick out words - especially on the internet.

Or, if you prefer...

Interestingly I'm studying this controversial phenomenon at the Department of Linguistics at Aberystwyth University and my extraordinary discoveries wholeheartedly contradict the publicised findings regarding the relative difficulty of instantly translating sentences. My researchers developed a convenient contraption at http://www.aardvarkbusiness.net/tool that demonstrates that the hypothesis uniquely warrants credibility if the assumption that the preponderance of your words is not extended is unquestionable. Apologies for adopting a contradictory viewpoint but, theoretically speaking, lengthening the words can manufacture an incongruous statement that is virtually incomprehensible. :)

Perhaps this could be explained by the paucity of vowels in the Welsh language. Indeed, Aberystwyth could do with a few extra vowels. Maybe we could start a charity called Vowels for Wales and export some unused ones from England. The u from colour could be a starting point. Anyone think of any more?
