Agreed, I tend towards dyslexic speech -- mostly when I'm really flustered or excited and my tongue trips over syllables, switching their order or some such thing.
I like to think that I could read this because I concentrated very closely and could make out the semblance of the word based on the letters that were presented to me. Ironically, I've always been crap at anagrams, so I think it's just the built-in spellchecker I possess (I always edit my friends' papers for these typographical/grammatical errors). I seem to remember an odd habit of mine from my younger years, where I would learn to spell words by sounding out the syllables as they were spelt (rather than by their actual pronunciations) -- I'm not sure if this is a dyslexic habit, or simply the way most "readers" learn vocabulary & context. It's not auditory, it's very visual, and what we see dictates what we hear.
