Does the smae phenomenon happen in other written languages? I mean,
you're talking about reading scrambled English, right? So I wonder if,
for example, it would work in Dutch or French or German or Spanish.
It'd be really interesting to rearrange some Katagana or Hiragana. ;-)
(Japanese syllabaries, not that I can read it.)
