Article information
Se ha sugerido que, al aprender a leer, los lectores de ortografías transparentes se basan en unidades de lectura de reducido tamaño, como grafemas y fonemas. El presente artículo muestra que los lectores en desarrollo en Italia utilizan la lectura lexical y morfolexical desde los primeros grados elementales. Asimismo, se revisan varios estudios que documentan la presencia de efectos lexicales y morfolexicales en disléxicos evolutivos italianos. Se sostiene que, incluso en ortografías transparentes, las unidades de lectura de amplio tamaño, como morfemas y palabras completas, son necesarias para adquirir fluidez en la lectura.
Palabras clave:

It has been suggested that readers of transparent orthographies rely on small-size reading units, such as graphemes and phonemes, in learning to read. The present paper shows that lexical and morpho-lexical reading is used by developing readers of Italian since the first elementary grades. Several studies that report the presence of lexical and morpho-lexical effects in Italian developmental dyslexics are also reviewed. It is argued that large-size reading units such as morphemes and whole-words are necessary, even in a transparent orthography, in order to attain reading fluency.
Keywords:
Transparent orthography, reading acquisition, word morphology, Italian developmental dyslexia
