Even though Specific Reading Disability (Dyslexia) has been
clinically recognized as a developmental learning disorder for
nearly a hundred years. only within the past two decades it has
become the subject of major experimental investigation. Because. by
definition. dyslexic children are of average or superior
intelligence. it is often suspected that some arcane feature of the
written language is responsible for the inordinate difficulty
experienced by these children in learning to read. The occasional
claim that developmental dyslexia is virtually nonexistent in some
languages coupled with the fact that languages differ in their
writing systems has further rendered orthography a subject of
serious investigation. The present Volume represents a collection
of preliminary reports of investigations that explored the
relationship between orthography and reading disabilities in
different languages. Even though not explicitly stated. these
reports are concerned with the question whether or not some
orthographies are easier to learn to read and write than others.
One dimension on which orthographies differ from each other is the
kind of relationship they bear to pronunciation. The orthographies
examined in this book range from the ones that have a simple one-to
one grapheme-phoneme relationship to those which have a more
complex relationship."
