If you can raed this, you have a sgtrane mnid too

Can you raed this? Olny 55 plepoe out of 100 can.

I cdnuolt blveiee that I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd what I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in what oerdr the ltteres in a word are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is that the frsit and last ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can still raed it whotuit a pboerlm. This is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the word as a wlohe. Azanmig huh? Yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt!

I could read it but I wouldn't say it was super easy. Would probably been easier for me if it was in swedish.😉 I've done this kind of stuff before though.

A majority can read it. Should we guess that the people posting in this thread managing to read it will be higher than 55%? Not many people want to admit to not manage when others say they do.
 
Oh, I've read this before but in Italian. I could understand in english also. Our mind is a very complicated and beautiful thing.
 
I think I've seen it before. Read it with no problem though. The human mind is pretty cool indeed 🙂
 
Next step-

1- Find the C below..

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

As there is no way to incorporate a timer that aspect is moot. The above, including the sentence was a preliminary test for the possibility or onset of Alzheimer's. Passing said tests would indicate that neurologically your brain is fine. (for the moment at least!)

I passed but I wouldn't say my brain is fine!!! LOL
I love the 'only 55 people out of 100 can' bit. There's a bunch of internet ads these days that keep saying things like "Can you guess the correct answer? Only 35% of the people in your area can!", stats that I presume are just entirely made up (as 42% of stats are anyway). In some cases there is no 'correct' answer ("Is the picture a rabbit or a duck? 59% got it wrong!"), and I guess the whole exercise is built around a desire in humans to think they can do something that the majority of humans can't.

I'd bet 90% or more of native English speakers could read that with little to no difficulty

No, you would actually bet wrong. That being said, it is supposed to be administered to those over 65, which I am sure would skew the results.
The first one was easy but the second one was a bit harder. I almost didn't find the N lol.
These tests are very interesting.
 
Stumbled over two or three words that I needed to look at for a few secs, but generally the text was qtuie rdaelabe. 😀
 
If it's just one letter/number in each that's "hidden" I found them way too fast. Maybe I was cheating. 😉
 
I do a lot of word searches and don't have to search for all the words they just jump out at me when I look at the puzzle. Same here. I found the C&6 right off once I believed the N was there I saw it right away. lol
