A research at Cambridge University shows we human read the words as a whole instead of letter by letter. As long as the first and second letter are in the right place, we will still able to recognize the word, does not matter in what order the letters are. When it comes to words, yes we may recognize it as a whole, but socialising? Maybe or maybe not. We usually focus on one point when it comes to dealing with people, the outer layer instead of the inner part. Sometimes we even forget the strong point of one, while busy worrying about the weaknesses. A friend told me how they grade each other among friends, from height to intelligence, to physical appearance and personalities. Not just by specific part of theirs, but also, as a whole.
