    Can someone translate the word 'Dyslexia' for me

    I'm trying to help a Thai student who i believe to be dyslexic. Instead of the Thai teachers trying to help her they just brand her as stupid. Her Thai and English writing consists of different shapes.

    Probably a lost cause but maybe I can try.

    Thanks

    Dyslexic people see the world in 3-d as opposed to flat. It means that they are capable of tapping into higher intelligence. It also means that they typically do poorly in a structured learning environment. When a cixelsid I mean dislexic sees a word it spins freely in 3-d space and tehrefroe ti dsoent mttaer waht odrer the lettres are in. 3, M, W, and E all look nearly the same in this 3-D world.

    yeah I'm one of those thais.
    I know ความบกพร่องในการอ่าน though.

    i was a volunteer in the rural schools in surin, I met so many students that have this problem, not only in reading, but also writing. Everything was up-side-down, some students started writing from the end of the words.

    Is this problem recognised in Thailand as the teachers seem to be unaware of it.

    Sounds better than epilepsy, which is "fainting pig disease".

    Dyslexic people make the best designers. In my class at uni we had three dyslexic guys and they were always top of the class.

    This is intriguing.

    Reading that was dead easy - didn't slow down more than 5% on the first pass. Does this mean I'm lysdexic?

    Actually, practically, I often mix up letters when writing - especially as I've got older.

    I knew a dyslexic who went to a Toga party dressed as a goat.

    My SO for many years was dyslexic. She tried to kill herself twice and did poorly in school...but her memory was phenom...she graduated from nursing school and now makes $80k a year as a nurse in SF. She could remember conversations a year later to the word. Remember, you said you "would take me skiing on my birthday" growing up in Hawaii, she had never been in the snow. I took her to Colorado to go skiing and we came back with a Husky dog.
