I have no problem with it as if it is written correctly, but what is the reason some can't?

I don't know if that means I can read this easier or not? Would be interesting to know.

An interesting thing to note, and something that I think is important, is that the short words like it, the, and, of, are all spelled correctly. I think it's important to the readability that these words are left intact. They are the glue that holds the sentences together. I think it would be much harder if these were messed up too.

Because I'm curious now. I was taught to read phonetically (as opposed to whole word memorisation) only, but I have no trouble recognising the words instantly.

I heard it as the computer voice lady on Star Trek.

Am I the only one who hears voices when I read?
