Most of the claims are also supported in Schneider‟s definition (cited in Titlová 8). Schneider
mentions that it is characteristic for a dyslectic child to have difficulties in recognizing language
patterns presented orally and, as a result, difficulties in recognizing grammatical as well as
lexical patterns. He adds that due to coordination difficulties some children can also have poor
handwriting. All the problems subsequently result in limited vocabulary and lower level of
general knowledge of language (Hanušová, “Výuka cizích jazyků” 2).
