Word city, a new language tool

the long version

This is a dictionary for those of us who cannot spell. Using the consonant sounds only, the user is able to look up the correct spelling of a word. This is a great tool for those who have sequencing difficulties, keeping sequences in a left to right order. Computers help us spell correctly now, but not so much in the 1980's. I used this book with middle school and HS learning disabled students and it was amazing to watch their eyes light up after I showed them this tool. So many times the poor speller is told to, "look it up". That is easy to say but not so easy to do when you don't 'hear' the vowels. As a poor speller with a masters degree, this book was a god -send. I'm about to use this with my bi-lingual GED students now 20 years later because we do not have computers available to use.
