  2. Orthographies and dyslexia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthographies_and_dyslexia

    Orthographic Dyslexia. [edit] Orthographic dyslexia, a subtype of dyslexia, results in difficulty decoding and encoding skills due to slow and inaccurate rates of storing word and letter formations into memory. Orthographic dyslexics have difficulty in storing mental representation of words, especially phonetically irregular words such as word ...

  3. Underlying representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underlying_representation

    In some models of phonology as well as morphophonology in the field of linguistics, the underlying representation (UR) or underlying form (UF) of a word or morpheme is the abstract form that a word or morpheme is postulated to have before any phonological rules have been applied to it. [1][2] In contrast, a surface representation is the ...

  4. Dual-route hypothesis to reading aloud - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-route_hypothesis_to...

    Surface dyslexia was imitated by damaging the orthographic lexicon so that the program made more errors on irregular words than on regular or non-words, just as is observed in surface dyslexia. [6] Phonological dyslexia was similarly modeled by selectively damaging the non-lexical route thereby causing the program to mispronounce non words.

  5. Phonology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonology

    t. e. Phonology is the branch of linguistics that studies how languages systematically organize their phones or, for sign languages, their constituent parts of signs. The term can also refer specifically to the sound or sign system of a particular language variety. At one time, the study of phonology related only to the study of the systems of ...

  6. Surface dyslexia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_dyslexia

    Surface dyslexia is a type of dyslexia, or reading disorder. [1][2] According to Marshall & Newcombe's (1973) and McCarthy & Warrington's study (1990), patients with this kind of disorder cannot recognize a word as a whole due to the damage of the left parietal or temporal lobe. Individuals with surface dyslexia are unable to recognize a word ...

  7. Phoneme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoneme

    A simplified procedure for determining whether two sounds represent the same or different phonemes. A phoneme is a sound or a group of different sounds perceived to have the same function by speakers of the language or dialect in question. An example is the English phoneme /k/, which occurs in words such as cat, kit, scat, skit.

  8. English orthography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_orthography

    English orthography does not always provide an underlying representation; sometimes it provides an intermediate representation between the underlying form and the surface pronunciation. This is the case with the spelling of the regular plural morpheme, which is written as either - s (as in tat, tats and hat, hats ) or - es (as in glass, glasses ).

  9. Fis phenomenon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fis_phenomenon

    The fis phenomenon is a phenomenon during a child's language acquisition that demonstrates that perception of phonemes occurs earlier than a child's ability to produce the appropriate allophone. It is also illustrative of a larger theme in child language acquisition: that skills in linguistic comprehension generally precede corresponding skills ...
