Is spelling really all that important?

hahahah... nice one. i am reading it correctly even the spelling is not right. because the brain reads the first and last letter of the word. spelling, grammar and thought is not that important . we are here to learn and discuss things. well, my grammar is not good but i am trying to learn it. the consolation is the earnings. mylot is for socialization and income generation.

I saw a shorter version of this in one of those quiz sites. Amazing how our brain works, right? It seems our brain has the capacity to find connections when at first look there isn't one. Nice idea with this brain workout. You should also try those pictures--don't know what they're called--where you get different visuals if you change the angle from where you're looking. It's fun.

okay barehugs let me try Some mylotters will undoubtedly pass this spot right by while some will understand what foreign language this post is written in. However when the words suddenly begin to jump into your mind you will be amazed.Please tell how you felt when that happened? right, you have to take the first and last letter and let your brain put them where they belong then you can read it just fine. love this,great brain workout too.

I don't have much problem reading this one but I still think that even with jumbled wordss like this, spelling is still important - or at least, knowing the first and last letters and the letters in between. Try jumbling an unfamiliar word and for sure, many can't decipher it.

Hi there friend this is a very nice discussion. Our mind doesn't read a word as a whole word as long as the first and the last letter in in the right place we can easily read a word. We can do this because we already know the words written on your post so rich vocabulary is still important that's why some peple said that only smart people can read a jumble letters. Amazing huh!!

yes Perfection is required everywhere to get success and all benefit in life.

Yes, I can read you well here even how you jumble up your words. Spelling is important to get the right meaning of the words across. I am so used to reading the words in mylot so I can roughly figure out the words and come with the right words.

I flet cguaht in taht smee old tarp. I hvae raed slmiiar tginhs to tihs in elaims, and oehtr pceals, and truly, I don't find it very difficult reading that way, but it is hard to write that way. I always feel, a bit smarter when I read these things, but at the same time slightly confused, and so long as one knows what you means, spelling is irrelevant, the country has been around longer then standardized spelling. I appreciate you.

lol...I can read everything that you write here...kinda fun to read to besides challenging...Well not all mylotter will feel the same as I felt. Maybe some will be annoyed and irritated. But there is a mylot rule that say "Do Not Post discussions, responses or comments criticizing members for bad/broken English or bad spelling. Everyone is welcome at myLot, we have users from all around the world and they are welcome regardless of their proficiency with the English Language."

most people can read jumbled words, i think if the first and last letters are in the same place. how i felt? not much, i have seen this before

Yes I feel spelling is important because it is easier to read and understand what one is asking. I am always careful when I type things to make sure that I spell things correctly and make sure that my questions and responses make sense.

Very good! The mind really can figure out what the words are even when scrambled! However, in answer to your question, I guess I do think that spelling is important. It reflects poorly when spelling is incorrect. That being said, I am trying not to spell anything incorrectly in this post!
