A recent study has concluded that a different part of the brain is involved with Dyslexia among English Speakers and Chinese speakers.
The article refers to the fact the English is based on phonix, and Chinese is based on characters that represent words.
This study makes me wonder if Chinese dyslexic's could learn English with less trouble and vice versa. After all, the languages make use of different parts of the mind.
