🔀 Word Scrambler
Scramble the internal letters of each word while keeping the first and last letter intact — the famous typoglycemia effect.
About Typoglycemia
Typoglycemia is a phenomenon where readers can still understand text even when the internal letters of words are scrambled, as long as the first and last letters remain correct. This demonstrates how the human brain reads words as a whole rather than letter by letter.
Frequently Asked Questions
