Question of type of dyslexia

I am reading an article and I encounter the word 'grapho-phonemic' all the time. It is explained that this is when the letter-sound combination chosen is different from the normal usage. I don't really understand this. Can someone explain this a bit simpler, and an example of this would be great.

Thanks!

"Graphics" is what we're looking at and "phonics" is what we're listening to. The combination, "grapho-phonemic" is just an adjective to describe anything which concerns their interrelationship. I don't think it has to be anomolous.

  • They could be in perfect agreement, or following the most normal patterns.
  • I think you need to give us one more word, indicating some kind of abnormality - that is, describing the situation in which the spelling of a word goes against the usual patterns.
