Dyslexia is a specific learning difficulty that primarily affects language. There are many different kinds of dyslexia: visual dyslexics have difficulty reading words or writing letters the correct way round (they may mistake 'b' for 'd', for example) whereas people with auditory dyslexia have trouble processing sounds and getting phonemes in the correct sequence when they try to write things down. Other difficulties associated with dyslexia include short-term memory problems, a weak attention span, and poor organisational skills.

Dyslexia is not a synonym for stupidity, as most dyslexics have high IQ scores. It is also not a made-up 'excuse', as MRI scans of dyslexic people have found that their brains are shaped differently to those of most people, with the language area in the right hemisphere being the same size as the language area in the left. (In people without dyslexia, the left language processing area is much larger than the one in the right hemisphere.)

Dyslexic people are often particularly gifted in art, music, sport, drama, or anything involving visual creativity. Some are also talented authors - the awardwinning poet Benjamin Zephaniah is dyslexic.

Spastic

An excuse used by people of various careers to rationalize their failures or shortcomings. This term came into existence during the “Soccer Mom” generations, as American mothers were scrambling for a reason as to why their children were so stupid.

Josue

Someone who can't spell right and is a complete idiot.

Dyslexic is a race. This race is studied and know as he in between of indian and African American. This race is very rare as less than 1% of the population have it making it the rarest race know to man.

The act being dyslexic.

A rather long preamble to the main point of what someone is trying to say. It's the story before the story that people with dyslexia often find themselves telling before they can tell you the thing they wanted to tell you.

A lot of dyslexisms end with the phrase, "..Wait, what were we talking about?" or, "...I'm sorry, I've lost my train of thought."
