Having difficulty with reading and spelling due to how the brain processes written words.
From Greek 'dys-' (bad, difficult) + 'lexis' (word, speech). Coined in the 1880s to describe a specific reading difficulty that wasn't about intelligence.
Many dyslexic people, like entrepreneur Richard Branson and actor Tom Cruise, excel in creative fields because their brains process information in unique ways that help with imagination and innovative thinking.
