If a child has difficulty in reading and/or spelling because he or she is unable to remember whole irregular sight words (also known as eidetic words) this condition is known as dyseidetic dyslexia. On the other hand, dyseidetic pertains to people who have a fairly good grasp of phonetics but experience difficulty with spelling and recognition of the whole word. In dysphonetic dyslexia, people face difficulty in connecting sound to symbols. Dyphonetic and Dyseidetic Dyslexiaĭysphonetic and dyseidetic are two different types of dyslexia. Mainly, there are three types of dyslexia: Dysphonetic, dyseidetic and dysphonetic/dyseidetic.
Dyslexia falling under this category is more psychological in nature. In this approach, dyslexia reading disorder is based on the concept of phonetics. Other types of classifications are based on developmental reading approach. However, medical practitioners as well as people often classify dyslexia based on processing disorders. Note: Primarily dyslexia is of three types: Trauma, Deep and Developmental. There is no problem in writing.ĭeep Dyslexia: a person has a problem in writing letters and words, grasping word-meanings, integrating the sounds of letters and in pronouncing less familiar words. Pure Dyslexia: a person having a problem in reading only. Spelling Dyslexia: a person has a problem reading any words and identifying individual letters. Semantic Dyslexia: an individual distorting the meaning of a word or getting confused with the meaning that leads to incorrect reading. Neglect Dyslexia: a person neglects either side (letters to the left or right) of words - a problem particularly experienced in reading words with many characters. They can read words that are familiar but have trouble reading unfamiliar words. Phonological Dyslexia: a person has difficulty with letters and connected sounds. Literal Dyslexia: an individual facing difficulty in identification of letters, either unable to match sounds with the letters or unable to identify upper- or lowercase letters.
Admittedly, dyslexia is a lifelong syndrome, but individuals with dyslexia quite often respond well to timely and appropriate intervention. Dyslexia can be found in varying degrees of severity and can present difficulties in understanding or speaking a language including phonological processing in reading, writing, spelling, handwriting and - in extreme cases - also in arithmetic. Dyslexia may be simplistically defined as a sort of neurological disorder that impedes the acquisition and processing of language skills.
