—In this paper, we present a new approach dedicated to correcting the spelling errors of the Arabic language. This approach corrects typographical errors like inserting, deleting, and permutation. Our method is inspired from the Levenshtein algorithm, and allows a finer and better scheduling than Levenshtein. The results obtained are very satisfactory and encouraging, which shows the interest o...

The aim of the article is to characterise spelling errors observed in Polish postcard messages. analysis source literature shows that so far little attention has been paid occurring unsupervised communication. For this reason, nearly 700 from around 3,000 texts sent via postcards second half 20th century were examined. author discusses individual and presents their typology, concluding most com...

Abstract Purpose (1) to verify what extent the occurrence of possible errors is influenced by relationship (opaque/transparent) between fricative phonemes and graphemes with which they can be spelled; (2) differences (if present or not) types among that common graphemic relationships. Methods We analyzed 750 textual productions from children in first year Elementary School (ES), conducted a sur...

The monitoring theory of language perception proposes that competing representations that are caused by strong expectancy violations can trigger a conflict which elicits reprocessing of the input to check for possible processing errors. This monitoring process is thought to be reflected by the P600 component in the EEG. The present study further investigated this monitoring process by comparing...

Abstract We studied the compositional written skills and spelling competence of individuals with a severe hearing impairment, examining qualitative quantitative characteristics their texts, psycholinguistic variables modulating productions, writing errors following fine-grained analysis. Sixteen deaf young adults, educated in bilingual settings, were examined compared to group control subjects ...

PURPOSE Damage to left perisylvian cortex often results in impaired phonological processing abilities with written language profiles consistent with phonological alexia and phonological agraphia. The purpose of this article was to examine a behavioral treatment sequence for such individuals intended to strengthen phonological processing and links between phonology and orthography, as well as tr...

PURPOSE To investigate if the performance on linguistic tasks would be predictive of orthographic domain and quality of written productions. METHODS Participants were 82 fourth graders of Elementary Education, from public and private schools of São Paulo, with ages ranging from 9 years to 10 years and 2 months. The test battery was composed of an expressive vocabulary test, phonological aware...

This paper introduces a spelling correction system which integrates seamlessly with morphological analysis using a multi-tape formalism. Handling of various Semitic error problems is illustrated, with reference to Arabic and Syriac examples. The model handles errors vocalisation, diacritics, phonetic syncopation and morphographemic idiosyncrasies, in addition to Damerau errors. A complementary ...

that any educated person can spell, yet literate adults commonly characterize themselves as poor spellers and make spelling mistakes. Many children have trouble spelling, but we do not know how many, or in relation to what standard, because state accountability assessments seldom include a direct measure of spelling competence. Few state standards specify what, exactly, a student at each grade ...

Multiple complaints in the domain of writing are common among children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). In this work we sought to characterize the writing disorder by studying dysgraphia in twenty 6th grade boys with ADHD and normal reading skills matched to 20 healthy boys who served as a comparison group. Dysgraphia, defined as deficits in spelling and handwriting, was as...
