Is this what being dyslexic feels like?
I am trying to read a document which contains three kinds of text:
- words which were in the original document, but should not be in the new one
- words which were in the original document, and should still be in the new one
- words which have been added to the new document
Not sentences, mind you. WORDS. Each different kind is underlined with a different number of lines, so that you can tell which is which. If you try reading it without any underlining, you end up with something that sounds sort of like this:
"Once upon a time, there was Little Red Riding Hood went a beautiful for a walk to visit girl named Cinderella her grandmother. She was To get to grandmother's very sweet, but house, she had to live with walk through a wicked forest where there was stepmother and a big bad wolf. It would have two ugly stepsisters. been safer to ride, but She did all the household chores, and not have a horse, because slept by the fireplace. her family was Poor Cinderella!"
My brain is melting...

But yeah, that sound horrible. I think it more correctly reads like someone trying to read something in a language they know, written by someone who thought they knew the language...
