Dyslexia and Language
2008 September 18
Recent studies suggest that there is a correlation between native language and the effects of dyslexia. According to findings in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the effect of dyslexia is different in children who read and speak English contrasted with those read and speak Chinese. Prior to this study, the language being read and the effects on the brain had not been considered in relationship to dyslexia. According to the study the a different part of the brain is used when reading an alphabetic language like English than when reading a symbolic language like Chinese.
