0 the smallest unit in a system of writing a language that can express a difference in sound or meaning
Either the grapheme that is doubled is replaced by another grapheme, which then undergoes doubling, or the doubling feature itself is misordered.
Due to phonological neutralizations, both orthographies contain homophonous graphemes, which provide alternative spellings for the same phoneme and constitute sources for spelling errors.
One of the clear conclusions that emerges from this study is that spelling development is not a mere technical skill of phoneme to grapheme conversion.
The results therefore provide evidence that people can use sound - spelling relationships larger than single phoneme - grapheme relationships when determining wordlikeness.
English spelling is opaque; in addition, there are complex and often unpredictable relationships between graphemes and phonemes.
The influence of the children's experience of the letters as initial graphemes of print words was apparent.
In the body unit, the grapheme-phoneme correspondences have a highly consistent one-to-one relationship.
Early in the first school year, performance was sensitive only to the length of the segment, suggesting involvement of grapheme- phoneme correspondences.
