    That's great, congratulations! (not being ironic, I really mean it). I also learnt how to read and write from my mother and auntie, and at a pretty early age.


    Problem with Aaron, he may have learnt to read but he didn't learn to SPELL at a young age and still really can't get it.
  3. In the UK there's indeed a difference between "learned" and "learnt", but American English only uses "learned" actually.
    I'm not kidding, look it up.

    That is because spelling is insignificant to me.

  7. Does it matter?
    Anyway, just to let you know: I learnt how to read at 3½-4 years, and started writing at 4½. I wrote my first 180 words essay at 6 because a teacher doubted that I could do it. I was later diagnosed with advanced intellectual giftedness at 11 and got promoted one year (I didn't do my 5th primary year, and jumped from 4th to 6th).

    Really? You don't really come across as exceptionally smart online - but perhaps it's just because English isn't your first language, which makes it hard to tell.

    Wow. How were you able to write an essay at age 6?
    You should post something like this in that U2 fans are smart topic, if you haven't already.
