Book excerpt: -Limited Edition with a Gloss Cover- The Dyslexia Dictionary is a phonetic word-finder designed to help locate those tricky to spell words. Specifically designed for those with dyslexia, language learners and anyone who wants to improve their spelling, this is your go-to resource for mastering tricky spellings. It is suitable for all ages and is used by students and professions throughout the world. From AARDVARK TO ZYGOTE, we will help demystify spelling without any more guesswork or frustration - simply consult The Dyslexic Dictionary and find the correct spelling every time. The premise is simple: some words are near impossible to find in a conventional dictionary for dyslexics and those learning English. Phonetically, they just make no sense. Colonel sounds like cernal; knife starts with a random K. The Dyslexia Dictionary helps solve this issue. Definitions are provided for each word, but its main purpose isn't to replace a normal dictionary. Instead, it's goal is to redirect incorrect guesses and reinforce correct answers by highlighting common errors. Spellings There are over 1,500 definitions provided for words that are phonetically difficult to covert into spelling, providing the perfect balanced between accessibility and convenience. For instance, take the word PATIENCE. Phonetically (where each letter or letter group represents a sound) it could be spelt pay-sunts, pace-ants or pac-ti-ence. Searching a standard dictionary for these attempted spellings would be fruitless, with no indication where to go to find the correct spelling. This is where The Dyslexia Dictionary is different. Additionally, there are over 400 deliberately misspelled words included to signpost the reader to the correct spelling. All these misspellings are clearly marked, pointing towards the correct spelling. Design The Dyslexia Dictionary is fully designed with ease of reading in mind, from the first page to the last. Gone is the need to read the tiny, indistinct writing in often found in a standard dictionary, then re-reading multiple times until you figure out if the word there or not. Instead, clear direction are given. The Dyslexia Dictionary was created by phonetic spellers, a method often used by dyslexics and English learners, using over two years of study and research. Every word included is one that has been personally submitted and has been found to be either: Prone to being misspelled; Difficult to find, or; Impossible to phonically find in a standard dictionary Ease of use is at the heart of this design philosophy, with larger fonts clearly displaying the words in an accessible and easy to read manner. Word breakdowns are included for ease of spelling, with common mistakes and language origins being highlighted as well. Pages are cream coloured for ease of reading, and at 384 pages it can be carried without difficulty. With its sleek design and timeless cover, The Dyslexia Dictionary will fit in perfectly with any environment, whether that be in a workplace, in an educational setting or at home. Stop repeatedly guessing spellings in hopes of stumbling upon the correct one - instead, streamline your efforts and save valuable time using The Dyslexia Dictionary.
