Abstract

This paper sheds light on general problems faced by persons with persistent dyslexia. Using simple language may help them read and overcome such problems, not to mention overcoming writing and reading problems. This paper provides some guidance respecting drills and applications to bring about that end. Accordingly, the paper seeks to set certain rules to simplify language to those with linguistic difficulties. It further clarifies the key factors behind dyslexia and distorted listening and sighting. In addition, the paper addresses the qualities of the simple language, its origins, and the linguistic analysis of standard language compared with simple language.
