Interestingly I'm studying this controversial phenomenon at the Department of Linguistics at Aberystwyth University and my extraordinary discoveries wholeheartedly contradict the publicised findings regarding the relative difficulty of instantly translating sentences. My researchers developed a convenient contraption at http://www.aardvarkbusiness.net/tool that demonstrates that the hypothesis uniquely warrants credibility if the assumption that the preponderance of your words is not extended is unquestionable. Apologies for adopting a contradictory viewpoint but, theoretically speaking, lengthening the words can manufacture an incongruous statement that is virtually incomprehensible. :)

        This effect is what Arabs, Jews, and Malays might call an "abjad": the omission of all vowels: Ths sntnc is stll rdbl evn thgh it cntns vry lttl vwls. Yet, it's still understandable, because vowels are rarely needed except to disambiguate very similar words.

                      BTW, in Arabic, the "Abjadiyah" lettes (horoof al abjadiyah) translates to "letters of the alphabet". Also, you don't have an omission of vowels, you have vowel like intonations called "harakat" which translate "movements". So for a letter, say "T", depending on the intonation it can be made to sound like "To" "Ta" "Ti" "Tan" "Ton" "Tin" "TT"(double consonant) "eT" (like at the end of a sentence).

                        In our dreams! they still creep in once in a while. It is just here the get hit by a barrage of infantry armament upon the first post. Occasionally someone tosses something real big at them like a tactical nuke equivalent in English, but for the most part they are simply bombarded with an overpowering force of individual shots. I saw a similar event when I was a teen. Ten guys in the back of a truck all armed to the teeth with semi-autos. When they see a deer, they open up like they were storming the beach at Normandy. Pretty effective if all you want is ground meat. So there you have it: in my analogy, here in the lounge we turn the SMS poster to ground meat. That is why we don't get as many here. hamburger anyone?

                              You will be amazed to find out that you were fooled by simple letter transpositions rather than true jumbles. Anyone who is skilled in anagram puzzles knows that the content of a word can be so scrambled as to make a single word take hours to unscramble. Sure, it can be done, but anagrams can be easy or hard based on the degree of randomness employed. Above you have an example of letter transpositions. Most people grew up making similar mistakes in school, and some of us still make such mistakes typing really fast. The same thing happens with accidentally leaving off a letter. These are common mistakes we see every day or have seen through our lives, so yes, they are readable "reasonably" easy. The degree that the letters are scrambled slows down the reading. The longer the word, and the greater the randomness of the shuffle, the more difficult to correct the word. Also some words have the same letters, same ending letters, but different words. This means the unshuffle must determine based on sentence context which word was originally used. All in all you can make a sentance easy, as above, or difficult: http://www.mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk/~mattd/Cmabrigde/[^] 3) A dootcr has aimttded the magltheuansr of a tageene ceacnr pintaet who deid aetfr a hatospil durg blendur but my favorite is: "The sprehas had ponits and patles" This might come out as... The sherpas had pitons and plates. The shapers had points and pleats. The seraphs had pintos and petals. The sphaers had pinots and palets. The sphears had potins and peltas. Clive lists some of the more obscure words in this set of possible readings: palets: paleae (a part of a grass flower) peltas: shields pinots: grapes potins: copper alloys sphaers, sphears: both old form of 'spheres' Of course if you truly believe this craziness works, you can test it yourself.

                                  That's more like a transliteration. A true alphabet contains symbols to represent consonants and vowels. The Greek alphabet (from alpha and beta) was the first of its kind. Modern Arabic and most abjads in use today aren't pure abjads anymore in a sense that they use the harakat-like system. However, all abjads today basically evolved from pure abjads, which had no vowels. The Phonecian script is a pure abjad.
