Im dislexic, upon another post i realize htats a too broad term so i thought i'd explain it further. I do not know the name of the type of dislexia i have.
I can read normal text fine, i read books allot, sometimes i go through many in a day
i ahve trouble reading numbers, mathematical dislexia, it reared its ugly head when i worked at walmart so many years ago and i'd read the total or the price or the change backwards 5.56 would turn, in my head, to 6.55 or worse yet 65.50
to add to that i both write and speak backwards. Youll notice that i mispell allot here, some of it is just plain typoes or ignorance to the spelling of a word, but the majority of it youll notice it is spelled correctly with the letters in the wrong place, that is part of my dislexia
for example, this was real, i did it, and ill leave it, two paragraphs back i wrote have as ahve, luckily the human brain can organize the letters itself and i bet there where many of you that didn't even notice that typo
lasty speaking backwards, i guess the best way to show an example of this, though it is much exaggerated, is Robin Hood Men In Tights, the sherrif of nottingham (not sure how to spell that lol) is a dislexic speaker. Ill do it allot and never catch it unless somone catches it for me, i get at least that from my mother (if she has the rest i don't know) because i catch her at it.
Instead of saying "my god that fog is thick" it comes out as "my fog that god is thick" or "my god that thick is fog" ect...
lol anyway,, yeah, i htink i posted this because i was mostly bored, bedtime!:bigrin:
