There are a variety of reading styles, some involve recognizing whole words at a time, others involve sounding out words.

I'm also a whole word reader, it is IMHO generally faster than needing to mentally hear words.

I just tried that. Not sure I like the feeling, seems to rob of the pleasure of reading. But it -is- an interesting effect. Do you get pleasure from it?

It is how I learned to read, early on I could read lots of words I had no idea how to pronounce.

Makes reading sci-fi with funky alien names much easier! :D
