Recognizing words by sight
Recognizing words by sight is the process of
identifying words from memory without analysis.
The term sight word to describe high-frequency
words, words most frequently encountered in print,
or irregularly spelled words (those that are
phonetically irregular and therefore not easily
decoded). In reality, any word that is immediately
recognized as a whole is a sight word.
