That's a really common thing among people who've built up their vocabulary mostly through reading. It's totally happened to me, too. *fist bump of solidarity*

It's happened to me so many times as well. You're definitely not alone, OP!

Happened to me as well. Words with silent letters (like "island") were the worst for me.
