  5. This is absolutely fascinating. But how long did it take you to write incorrectly?
    I still believe in grammar though, except in texting. So I will keep writing, and blogging, the proper way. Just stopping by from She Writes!

  9. My oldest child (11) would be able to read this message. But my younger school-age children (6&7) would have great difficulty with it. You first have to learn how words are spelled properly BEFORE your brain can start to skip over the letters, thereby increasing your reading speed.

  10. Yes, our brains can only process this because we know how to read. But spell check poses a whole new question! :)
