calculator Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Wooo dyslexia, aka screw grammar, phonetics, spelling, and punctuation. I'm pretty blind to most errors until I have learned the correct way, affect/effect anyone? Yay, I am not the only one with dyslexia (yes I had to copy your spelling of it to get it correct) on here. The only reason 90% of the words I write are spelt correctly is because of spell check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Offhand I can think of 4 members here I know are dyslexic. My sister is too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted May 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 A lot of the spelling doesn't worry me in the slightest. However some people simply don't realise that what they are writing is wrong and I thought a small guide might be of some help. I do dislike txt speak on the forums, but no more than I dislike it when people cannot be bothered putting in full stops. However in those cases I simply refuse to read those posts - I don't feel I am missing out, there are plenty of properly written posts on here.

alanmin4304 Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 You wish. Some people refer to the condition as a handicap and in some ways it may be but the relatives and friends I know with the condition seem to be over compensated with other gifts such as ability with maths or music. Many people throughout history who were considered brilliant have been gifted with the condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
