Language Disorders & Delays
What Are Language Disorders And Delays?
Children may present with a receptive language disorder (difficulty processing remembering and understanding language) or an expressive language disorder (difficulty verbalizing thoughts, feelings and ideas easily and effectively). Children may also present with a mixed receptive/expressive language disorder.
A language delay is a delay in the development of language as compared to one’s chronological age. Children with language delays may have difficulty with vocabulary, grammar, word order (syntax) and oral narrative skills. Play skills may also be delayed.
