Is it a trick? I count 6 in "There are 6 different colored fish".

its asking you to count the e's in the sentence "tell us", not the sentence before, or the sentence (question) itself, although it could be read that way.

Well yeah, exactly. I mean without knowing what he wants us to count it could be anything.

I would say 10, if it's meant to be some sort of trick question it doesn't work, it says 'this sentence', so you count the 'e's in that sentence.

awww man, SUPER thread fail. it was one of them pop up ads an for ages i kept coming up with 16 cause i was reading the whole paragraph, an the answers were "17" "10" and "8" or somethin. i kept missin the "e" in "tell us" and so i was like, zomg this is amazin, my eyes cant see that hidden e. when in reality, it was jus a ***** trick question.
the reason i posted it was because there exists a similar (proper) puzzle about counting letters and your mind will nearly always skip the e's possible in the word "the" because it just doesnt register them, maybe some of you have done that puzzle. i will try find it as its interesting to do, but apologies for this mess, thanks for tryin!
