It is often assumed that people who are illiterate, unable to read and write, are not very smart; this is a fallacy. There are many reasons that a person may be illiterate, such as physical, social, or learning disabilities not related to intelligence. Some people settling in a country that does not use their native language may have extreme difficulty learning the language of their new home, especially adults, and appear to be illiterate even if they learn to speak the new language but are literate in their native language.
