Abstract
The process of reading requires that an efficient transition be made from a visual symbol to a word name and to its meaning. For most adults this process is relatively easy. The experienced reader does not have to consciously spell out every letter or word to arrive at the meaning of a sentence; however, the case is different for children who are learning to read. The translation from a visual symbol to a word name and its meaning is a seemingly difficult one.
