For Most Of My Adult Life, While Typing At Speed,

default
Posted on Wed, 30 Jan 2019
Question: For most of my adult life, while typing at speed, I transpose letters. This is not an issue when I read or write by hand.

Is this anything?

I will add that mentallly, I am thinking of the word in the correct spelling sequence. My most frequent errors involve words like "then", "that", "the", "it", "if" or "in". Also, when words end and then begin with the same letter, I usually have to go back and add that letter. I don't double type it.

Thank you.
