      • Language

         Receptive language refers to a child's ability to comprehend spoken language.  A child with a receptive language delay may have difficulty comprehending auditory information such as following auditory directions or comprehending stories. 

        Expressive language refers to a child's ability to use language to express his/her thoughts orally. Weakness in expressive language may include a delay in learning appropriate vocabulary (semantics), grammar (syntax) and social use (pragmatics).  

        Language disorders can be specific to each child.  For example, a child may have a delay in one or both areas of language.
