With which one is she least likely to have difficulty?
a. Distinguishing between similar-looking letters (e.g., b vs. d)
b. Understanding common idioms (e.g., I have money to burn)
c. Knowing irregular verb forms (e.g., went is the past tense of go)
d. Learning letter-sound relationships (e.g., b makes a buh sound)
