Its aim is to present the studies focusing on the subject from an ¡°invented spelling¡± perspective and to discuss the results obtained. Results seem to be in accordance with the results obtained by similar studies in other countries and in different languages, thus supporting the idea of the existence of a universal character to the ways preschool children conceptualise writing. %K emergent literacy %K invented spelling %K writing %U http://l1.publication-archive.com/public?fn=enter&repository=1&article=266
