dyslexia ndyslexic adj
also word blindness
a general term sometimes used to describe any continuing problem in
learning to read, such as difficulty in distinguishing letter shapes and words.
Reading specialists do not agree on the nature or causes of such reading
problems, however, and both medical and psychological explanations have
been made. Because of the very general way in which the term is often used,
many reading specialists prefer not to use the term, and describe reading
problems in terms of specific reading difficulties.
