Verbally is how I experience it exclusively as in not like saying it aloud but more like uttering it to myself internally if that makes sense. I should log this when it happens next time. Usually I happen to be mentally reciting/picturing* a word syllabically and not alphabetically and for a span of 3-4 seconds it feels utterly alien. Happens with the simplest words like colour, market etc.
I don’t remember experiencing semantic satiation while reading, and it’s been awhile otherwise. Used to happen as a young person what feels like often but may only be a handful of times.

I've seen this while reading text, but does anyone have examples in any other sense? Verbally?

You mean "orally"? "Verbally" means "by means of words".
