"Hyperlexia," language

Post Reply New Topic

I was reading about the asp. "disorder" of hyperlexia.

I just discovered I have asp. but I also just wrote a novel using hyperlexic logic! And...it's sort of about having asp., in its own way, too.

For instancing a warry-time taking jabbers a want-withing over a trilltapesty's tread-tanklike center-sill.

That sentence doesn't mean anything much, of course, my book is quite not like that. But I saw some other similar stuff around.

I wrote several other books and many articles before this. Only now did I give free reign to "warping" grammar, words and usage in this particular way. Does anybody else have it in them to fabricate words and soforth? In school unless it's "crazy-poetry" class all instructors will generally see any emergent peculiarity as part of the same illiteracy problem, probably, when you may be pushing to break grammar-rules and invent words for your satisfaction. I try to say the "unsayable" about life and death using this broke-grammar and new words. I might have never written in this style at all, but I believe it's turned out smashingly, if anyone will actually publish it...

My dad does that. I've never been able to make up cool words. I wish I did. It seems like a lot of fun and I think it's so funny when used in a conversation.

I can't make up words (as far as I know) but I've noticed I have a unique style when it comes to prasing of words, and grammar. Not so much so in short things (such as forum posts) but when I had to write an examined piece the computer told me my grammar was all wrong - except it wasn't. If it had been, my teacher would have let me know. And also reading mine in comparison to others' showed me that mine were different.
