Language Disorders (including DLD)
A language disorder is a communication disorder characterised by
persistent difficulties in understanding and/or using words in context, as well as challenges with the social aspects of communication. These
difficulties may significantly affect a person's ability to express themselves, comprehend others, and engage in effective communication. A language disorder may co-exist alongside other diagnoses such as autism, Down Syndrome or a brain injury, When a language disorder is identified and there are no obvious causes such as hearing loss, intellectual disabilities, or neurological conditions, this is called “developmental language disorder”. Developmental Language Disorder (DLD), formerly known as Specific Language Impairment (SLI), is a neurodevelopmental disorder.
