Read it at normal speed. The brain is remarkable.

Misc fact: a little girl in the 80s was having 200/300 seizures a day because of one side of her brain. Becuase of no other options, they removed that half (never been done before). Seizures gone. With only one half she naturally lost a lot of functions, but with therapy the other half learnt to provide the functions that the removed half used to handle. She played varsity bball in highschool, graduated college with honors, etc. Damn!

How else do you think englsih teachers are able to read what studnets write?

It's just like how our mind can read stuff painted on roads. "STOP" may just be lines and segments but our mind connects them.
