At the same time, the one above, which follows the same rules is pretty difficult to read. So what makes the chain mail paragraph so readable? In simple words…. There are 69 words in the paragraph. Out of those 69 words, only 37 are jumbled.
That clears up the structure of sentences. Out of the 37 jumbled words. Those are breeze to figure out. That leaves us with just 25 jumbled letters. Given your life-long experience with reading, you can easily predict those if you know most of the other words. The words have not been jumbled a lot. There are mostly letter swaps, like — porbelm.
All those words that have this are pretty easy to figure too. It gets tougher when the central letter is moved from its place. So, they put in easy jumbles.

For years a fairly silly hoax has been flying around the internet, passed from one gullible person to another, claiming that the order of the medial letters in words is not important for word identification.
Basically, this is fairly crude parlor trick — one that quite erroneously claims to be based on research conducted at Cambridge University. I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg.
The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm.

Fmrrhtrouee, this atiibly smtes form a garet deal of enpicerexe rindaeg cretolcry slelepd wdros — olny plopee who can adrealy raed pelictroinfy can do this tsak. Oh, and by the way, terhe nveer was any phuilbesd rcsaeerh of tihs srot ccountded at Cridbagme or any oehtr usrivetniy.
