Default Do you ever..

Do you ever read a word or say a word so many times that it starts to look/sound a bit strange to you?


I just read the word engaged a few times in that marriage thread and now it looks weird to me as if it's misspelled even though it isn't

Yeah last time it happened to me was with the word "eerie", I started to think I was spelling it incorrectly and then thought it was a really weird word because it was five letters long and three of them were e's...

I did it the other day when I was talking about balloons at work, I said balloon so many times it felt as if I just made the word balloon up. Balloon.

I do this all the time ,some words just look silly and sound silly and as people have said they look as though they are spelt wrong,I often say to people so and so's a funny word isn't it,and they just give me that look of 'she's weird'
