What is a "language disorder"?
A language disorder is a condition that affects an individual's ability to understand, produce, or use language effectively. This can manifest in various ways, including difficulties with speaking, listening, reading, or writing. Language disorders can result from developmental issues, neurological conditions, brain injuries, or other factors. They may include specific types such as expressive language disorder, where a person struggles to express thoughts clearly, or receptive language disorder, where understanding spoken or written language is challenging. Language disorders can impact communication skills and social interactions, making assessment and intervention important for effective support and development.
