Default Have you ever....

.....said or read a word so many times in a row (as if you were studying and kept re-reading a word) and repeated it so many times, that the word became unfamiliar?

Like last night, I was reading my notes over and over. It got to the point where "with" looked and felt like a foreign word. Am I explaining this right? Does anyone know what Im talking about? It also happened with the word "gun" awhile back.

You know you're getting old when you can't accept slang anymore.

Or you write a word down, and you can't figure out if that's really a word or if it has anything to do with what you think it meansl.
then you look it up,......and it does.
