Dyslexia n. A learning disorder marked by impairment of the ability to recognize and comprehend written words.
In my case letters can appear backwards, or to be completely different letters.
As a dyslexic I miss a great many spelling errors, but not necessarily the grammatical errors. Proofreading my text is a significant problem to me. On the other hand I have a great deal of fun reading what others have written. I'll often think to myself "NO! They couldn't have meant that!"
To me, it's not so much the grammatical errors as the factual errors that will cause me to put down a book.
