Wow. He really is over analyzing !!! I just thought it was kinda different.

Although, I do feel that spelling is important.

thats one of my second favourite tricks to the english language. my favourite one is one that i read in a readers digest. you start out reading in english and while your reading it it explains how moving letters to different spots and pronouncing them a bit differently that you will be speaking german, and by the end of reading it goes from english to mixed to german. its really neat. and you can understand the last few sentences. out minds are one thing that scientist will never 100% understand.

That sounds pretty neat !!

Readers that are proficient should be able to read this but only with the Context, Orthographic, Meaning, and Phonological reading processing systems in place.
