When I spell out a word, I don’t visualize anything. Using words in conversation, typing, or writing is also innate—they flow through without touching my consciousness. This is another aspect of my maxim, “my subconscious is way smarter than I am.” It responds quickly and accurately, at any rate.
I consider myself to be adept at the English language, and more objective evidence bears that out. I scored 36⁄36 on the English portion of the ACT, managed to accumulate enough extra credit through correcting my professor in my college level writing class that I didn’t need to take the final, and many people have told me that I write very well in many different contexts (collaborative fiction, business reports, online forums, etc.).
I would go so far as to say that if I make an effort to improve on my communication by the use of conscious thought, I do worse than when I “feel it out.”
