What Is Dyslexia?
Dyslexia is a language-based learning disability that causes difficulties with word recognition, spelling, and reading. Dyslexia is classified as a neurodevelopmental condition and is closely related with dyscalculia (difficulties in understanding mathematics), dyspraxia (difficulty in activities requiring coordination and movement), and dysgraphia (difficulties in writing). It causes an overall impairment in a person’s learning abilities.
Dyslexia affects around 15% of Indians. However, many people tend to ignore their symptoms, dismissing them as nothing. Some of the most common symptoms of dyslexia are reading difficulties, mixing up words, having problems with spelling, grammar, and punctuation, and the inability to decode sequences.
One of the main causes of dyslexia is genes and heredity. Dyslexia is commonly detected among children whose parents and other family members had the same difficulties.
