    Audiobooks do the reverse.

    “Wait, that’s how you spell that??”

    I guess it’s usually with names, though.

      *pronounce rather than spell, but yeah.

      Particularly, many stresses turned out to be not where I imagined them.

        No, I think they had it the way they meant to.

        They hear the name while listening to audiobooks and then see the name written later.
