I like to think that I am quite skilled at detecting this type of issue. Now that I think about it, this might be related to my pun skills. Being able to decipher more than one meaning is critical for doing both.

How good are you at detecting where the typo is in a message? Where the omission, or addition, of one word; changes what the whole sentence would seem to mean?

idk about words but extra punctuation can help with readability.
