alternate dimensions in words

[dip]

has anyone found after a trip (acid in particular) that spelling seems to have many different perspectives?

Like "alternate"
all...turn...atee
alter...nate
alt...ern...ate

It takes on a completely foriegn figure, and sometimes SWIM spends a few seconds trying to figure out which is the correct pronounciation.. lol. Days or even weeks after a trip.

Swim has never experienced anything like this on a trip, however swim can relate to what you mean. When swim thinks about words too much all of them seem odd. Even short ones, Swims favourite odd word is egg, however you say it it doesnt sound right. Remember that words are just a jumble of sounds that we learn, repeat and ascribe meaning to. They are completelty "foreign figures" in relation to what they represent.

To assume makes an ass out of u and me.

SWIM has experienced this phenomenon on large doses of psychedelics also. It may be a form of temporary aphasia, a speech and linguistic disorder, probably caused by over-stimulation in the left side of the brain.
