Ghotit Advanced Spelling and Grammar Checker and Ghotit Intelligent Word Prediction Were Optimized for People with Dyslexia, Dysgraphia and Other Learning Disabilities.

All of us who suffer from dyslexia, dysgraphia, and other learning disabilities know the embarrassment of sending out written text and receiving negative remarks regarding poor spelling, grammar and punctuation.

All of us who suffer from dyslexia, dysgraphia, and other learning disabilities are familiar with the frustration of producing terribly spelled text, even after investing a lot of time and effort in correcting our text with common spell checkers.

The question remains: How can we - dyslexics, dysgraphics and other people with learning disabilities - gain our writing independence?

In order to answer this question, we need to look at how common spell checkers work. Regular spell checkers are optimized for keyboard spelling mistakes and minor spelling errors. They have a limited set of rules and assume a "short editing distance" between the misspelled and correctly spelled word.

Ghotit, on the other hand, was developed especially for people with dyslexia, dysgraphia and other learning disabilities. Ghotit's spelling and grammar checker starts by performing a spell check and an in-depth analysis of the written text, suspecting every word as a misspelled or misused word (misused words are words that are spelled correctly but are used in the wrong context). Following this preliminary analysis, Ghotit analyzes the English grammar and performs a grammar check based on the words it suggested. The grammar correction takes into account the unique grammar errors that are made by people with dyslexia, dysgraphia and other learning disabilities. These grammar errors are caused in many cases due to spelling problems.

In addition to spelling and grammar, correct punctuation is required in high quality written text. People with dyslexia dysgraphia and other learning disabilities tend to produce text with poor punctuation. Ghotit takes this into account, and incorporates additional algorithms and rules to correct punctuation errors too.

Ghotit offers a writing assistive technology solution for people with dyslexia, dysgraphia and other learning disabilities. Ghotit helps the user select the correct word suggestion, by providing the user a text-to-speech engine, an integrated dictionary and descriptions of grammar and punctuation correction rules. Ghotit supports a number of English dictionaries including US, UK, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand dictionaries.

Ghotit demonstrates a 96% spelling correction and grammar correction rates of text produced by dyslexics, dysgraphics and people with other learning disabilities.

Ghotit is used in many schools, universities and learning centers by kids and students with dyslexia, dysgraphia, and other learning disabilities such as the ADD and ADHD learning disability.
