This is the phenomenon called “wordnesia”
It is a brain glitch where words don’t look like words. And sometimes become scrambled or you can’t understand what they mean or how they’re spelt.
Reading words is pretty much just on autopilot in your brain-so when you actually try to look at the words-and overlook at them-your brain gets a bit confused.
Like how driving becomes natural and actions eventually become automatic. Then when you think about driving, you suddenly can’t remember quite what to do.
