WHat words say I?
I can see the words, when people talk, it's very annoying, she complained.
My jaw dropped as I have this too, but never told anyone about it. When I mentioned it to my mum, she said she sometimes gets that too, and she had never told anyone either!
It's kind of like subtitles. If I can't understand what people say, I can't 'see' the words. But if I wasn't listening properly sometimes I can play it back. Weird huh?

Wow! Full stop.

I believe it.

I have a terrible visual memory, but a wicked auditory memory. I used to read at university while watching the Simpsons and Britcom and link the subject matter to the transcripts. I can still derive some long-"forgotten" proofs because of what Homer said...

ETA: I see his trait of mine in my son, who does his best learning in parallel with other activities.
