This article evaluates the hypothesis that phoneme-grapheme conversion is accomplished by a passive activation device in which the selection of mapping options in the process of assembling orthography is determined by the frequency of usage of that option in the language. The spelling performance of two brain-damaged, acquired dysgraphic patients is interpreted as support for the stated hypothesis.
