Auditory dyslexia - also called dysphonetic dyslexia or phonological dyslexia - is a subtype of dyslexia that refers to children who struggle with reading because they have problems processing the basic sounds of language (phonemes), sounds of letters, and groups of letters. The terms auditory dyslexia and visual dyslexia are often used by scholars to describe two main types of dyslexia. Spelling and writing, due to their close relationship with reading, are usually included.Īccording to popular belief, dyslexia is a neurological disorder in the brain that causes information to be processed and interpreted differently, resulting in reading difficulties.
