Content morphemes: words that have its own meaning. Free morphemes: words that can stand by itself. Might have potential sources of confusion: syntax. To explain how the dual route model helps describe the process by which we are able to read words. The dual route theory is based on word recognitions (from orphography- print to phonology- sounds) To define developmental dyslexia and to address several basics (and myths) associated with it. Developmental dyslexia: a specific brain-based learning disability characterized by difficulties with accurate and/or fluent word recognition, poor spelling, and decoding abilities. Heritable: more likely to have it when your parents have it. Might have other neurodevelopmental disorders (eg: add)
