The idea
Dyslexia is a reading disability with a core problem in phonological processing; dysgraphia is a writing disability involving phonological, orthographic and motor skills; dyscalculia is a mathematics disability linked to domain-general factors.
In practice
A student who cannot separate the sounds in "cat" shows the phonological core of dyslexia.
Where people slip
Each names a specific area, which is what makes these learning disabilities specific.
