TYPOGLYCEMIA
Looks weird but believe it or not you can read it. Typoglycemia is the lighthearted name given to a purported recent discovery about the cognitive processes behind reading written text. The name makes little sense as glycemia is the concentration of glucose in the blood, with the most probable origin of the word being a pun on Hypoglycemia. It is an urban legend/Internet meme that does have some element of truth behind it. The legend is propagated by email and message boards and demonstrates that readers can understand the meaning of words in a sentence even when the letters of each word are scrambled. As long as all the necessary letters are present, and the first and last letters remain the same, readers turn out to have little trouble reading the text.
