Summary/Abstract: The article raises the issue of language disability in adults resulting from dyslexia and manifested by written language disorders. This is how it tries to change the tradition of research on dyslexia, which is mostly focused on the school period and educational problems. In addition to the selective linguistic analysis of the text samples – which is the main part of the thesis – the article also looks at the other symptoms generally found in adults with dyslexia, which can significantly complicate the daily functioning.
