Yes, and ideal.

It's not unusual. You can train your both ways. Vocalizing and not vocalizing both have their uses

Has it never happened to you that you read a paragraph and then have to reread it because you didn't actually read it?

When you look at this here posty post, does your mincy ditzy prancy chancy brainerino force you to vocalise every single wordy wordy word word fart coom? Or can you skippedy skip the vocalisation and still retain the meaning?

I do usually, but I don't have to. Or atleast I can speed up/turn the volume down to the point where I don't perceive it

Lol, no you can't. You can fool yourself into thinking so though.

Yes I can. Try vocalising the words you read louder or more silently, you silly child

it's extremely normal and common, but unfortunately this means you're a midwit.

Yes. The point of the Pinecone
>subvocalizing
meme is to trick redditors into unlearning how to read. You are supposed to say words in your head when you read them, that's how reading works. You literally train yourself to say something upon seeing a word. You do this when reading silently, your throat and mouth still move, just minutely.

Not necessarily, visualization of words is no more or less better than auditory representation mentally, though it emphasizes different aspects, and auditory translates more directly to the real world through speech
