english: Richard Ford: I was slow to learn to read, went all the way through school not really reading more than the minimum, and still to this day can't read silently much faster than I can read aloud, but there were a lot of benefits to being dyslexic for me because when I finally did reconcile myself to how slow I was going to have to do it, then I think I came very slowly into an appreciation of all of those qualities of language and of sentences that are not just the cognitive aspects of language: the syncopations, the sounds of words, what words look like, where paragraphs break, where lines break. I mean, I wasn't so badly dyslexic that I was disabled from reading. I just had to do it really slowly, and as I did, lingering on those sentences as I had to linger, I fell heir to language's other qualities, which I think has helped me write sentences.
non_english: Ričard Ford: Sporo sam učio da čitam,  prošao sam kroz celo školovanje minimalno čitajući Čak ni danas ne mogu da čitam u sebi mnogo brže nego što čitam naglas, ali postojalo je mnogo pogodnosti za mene sa disleksijom jer kada sam se konačno pomirio  sa tim koliko ću sporo morati da čitam, počeo sam da cenim sve one vrline jezika i rečenica koje nisu samo kognitivni aspekti jezika: sinkopacija, zvuci reči, kako reči izgledaju,  de se pasusi završavaju, gde se redovi završavaju. Nisam bio toliko dislektičan da nisam mogao uopšte da čitam. Samo sam morao da čitam veoma sporo. I dok sam  otezao sa rečenicama, počeo sam ceniti ostale kvalitete jezika, što mi je pomoglo da pišem rečenice.
