Abstract | The ability of word recognition from spelling pronunciation was found to be predictive
of word reading accuracy in languages of different opacity. This study examined a similar
effect in Chinese, a phonologically opaque language. The performance of word recognition
from mispronounced words of 45 children at risk of dyslexia and 51 children with average
reading abilities were compared. Further analysis on the learning performance using
phonological cues was carried out. No significant results in using phonological cues in
facilitating Chinese word recognition in beginning readers were found. Alternative
possibilities based on characteristics of Chinese language, and educational practices were
discussed.
