Why does "logamnesia" redirect here?

I find reading to 'exercise and re-learn words constantly helps, as does expanding my vocabulary by learning a LOT of synonyms. This helps for my primary/first language, but since my injury trying to learn a second language is like fighting a battle on a cliffside without the crutch of a large repertoire of words (though if I had more free time I think I could do it...). A study here DOI: 10.1055/s-2008-1061625 shows how some patients personal efforts can fight declining speech skills - and although I don't have dementia or worsening anomia like they did, I imagine my vocabulary would shrink fast without constant practice. Even typing this out I forgot the word 'vocabulary' twice! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.45.230.126 (talk) 23:28 July 27, 2019 (UTC)

Reverse?

What is the reverse condition called, where words are legible but letters arent? There's a person who can read and write just fine in multiple languages, including reading text with typos, and you wouldn't know there was anything wrong with them unless you ask them to reproduce random sequences of characters. By just saying 'wrong' at every incorrect try, it can take up to an hour for them to get it right. --Zom-B (talk) 09:54, 15 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
