Summary/Abstract: The aim of the research was to examine the successive rewriting abilities aimed at determining the difficulties in the phonological-phonematic, optical, kinetic, spelling and grammatical components of writing. The analysis determined the number of errors for the respondent which are omitting or adding letters, syllables, words, sentences, spelling and grammatical errors. The general purpose of this part of the examination is to determine the degree of mastery of writing, to find difficulties in writing, to determine the mechanism, form and extent of these difficulties. The aim was to investigate and determine whether there was a statistically significant difference in rewriting ability with respect to the age of the respondent. The study was conducted on 45 hearing impaired respondents (primary and high school students). Based on this research, it was found that: no statistically significant difference in rewriting abilities was found with respect to the age of the respondents; when rewriting, hearing impaired respondents had no errors at the text level; no errors at the word level, and specific spelling errors (optical and phonological - phonemic character) and linguistic analysis and synthesis errors were recorded, while no kinetic - type errors were recorded.
