same thing in all slavic languages.this happens because word patterns are stored in our brain. so we basicaly know it even without thinking about it.anyone who ever worked with neural networks understands this.Go with the flow & have fun! Else fight the flow  |

| I'd say it is not just recognizing each word as a whole, but also in the context of the sentence. If you take that same statement, but mix up the order of the words and just list them all out, it's another story all together.- Jeff |
