Just to clarify, here's a translation Big Grin


According to research at an English university, it doesn't matter in
what order the letters in a word are, the only important thing is that
first and last letter is at the right place.

The rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without problem.

This is because we do not read every letter by it self but the word as a
whole.

So all of those Latin enscriptions that are "compressed" and abbriated is just to prove they could still read it without any real spelling? :lol:
