For most of the characters typewriting on the computer is quite ok. Only some of the characters are causing problems. I still got problems with<br />

the following characters: ",", ";", ".", ":", "-", "_", "#", "'", "+", "*" and "?". Some of these are barely being used in “normal” live. And that is the<br />

difficulty about that. How do I learn such characters? If I tap a "a" or a "b" it takes some time, but it “does enters the brain at some point”. It is<br />

just a matter of exercise. Behind the "a" and the "b" there is still a sense. But it is difficult for me to find such a sense behind a "_" or ":". “To get<br />

a sense” behind a character that would make life much easier. Of course I could tap a special character many times, but that would not fix the<br />

problem. Instead I did the following. I wrote some words. Every word starts a new line, e.g.<br />

Abby<br />

Abelina<br />

Abigail<br />

Adelaide<br />

Adeline<br />

Adina<br />

Adrienne<br />

And now the exercise begins. I insert e.g. "_", and remove the “enter”. The text reads as follows: Abby_ Abelina_ Abigail_ Adelaide_ Adeline_<br />

Adina _ Adrienne_. For most of you that is not a problem. But for me that is still difficult. I have a new character “_” and I remove the “enter”. I<br />

normally use many words in such an exercise. By that I get familiar to the characters and I also add a character each line. At least for me it is a<br />

good exercise and it has some sense.<br />

Again characters<br />

I made something new with characters, syllables and numbers. Thereby I got on the following problems. I had a selection of large or small<br />

characters. My task was so order that in alphabetical order. Thus the following was:
