Raspberry. I hate that word! In 1993 it was the first word ever to make me score 19 out of 20 on our weekly spelling test. Forgot the fucking P didn't I.

I get it all the time, where even small simple words look a bit strange and puzzling. There's no definitive list of words, as it's often words I've not questioned before. It may be mild dyslexia, as we'd not all potentially suffer conspicuously all of the time.

I'm dyslexic, so far too many words end up looking strange, the real problem is I cannot see why.

It's usually only when I see a word used several times in a block of text...I didn't know until I posted a thread on here a while back that there was a term for it...semantic satiation
