Ok, that works and is weird. Does your brain use the same part to interpret heard words as written ones? Agh!
It also occurred to me that seeing a TikTok video inside a Tweet embedded in a forum post is like looking at a single representation of the evolution of the internet

If I read the the opposite word "aloud" in my head while reading the other one, I heard what I was saying in my head.
I think that makes sense, lol.

Your brain fills in the gaps. You're looking at the word and telling your brain that's the word you're hearing so it manipulates the sound to fit that.
There's a classic experiment called the Mcgurk Effect where you hear the same sound but see a mouth making different shapes and you automatically put the two together to make you think it's a different sound. Similar thing.

There's some interesting materials out there on how your brain constructs all reality. On the basis that our senses all work at different speeds, yet we perceive the sensation of someone slapping us as happening simultaneously with watching the impact and hearing the sound. There's some serious reordering and reconstruction going on, seemingly happening in the moment. We feel things happen much faster than we hear them and much, much faster than we see them.
