crashnburn Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 True. Its not that it does not read every word. The humand mind RECOGNIZES PATTERNS of LANGUAGE LEANT FROM (SPEECH, HEARING ALL THE TIME, PREVIOUS READING) and automatically FIXES them in real time. Namely like a SPELL CHECKER. But here it does more than that. COGNITIVE ABILITIES we develop. Now if this happened to someone who does not know the language well.. and cannot RECOGNIZE PATTERNS well.. then..
