Summary
	Presents summaries of diagnostic observations from several languages. Observations are primarily psycholinguistic and have to do with the way subjects manipulate or react to their own language.
	Discusses reading techniques in Hindi with the focus on determining the most useful matrix for teaching letter recognition and sounding out words. Discusses orthographic problems relating to neutralization and nasalization for two Amerindian languages and the use of the couplet rather than the syllable as a matrix in Manobo, a Philippine language.
	Concludes with a discussion of how these observations might apply to reading in English.
