This is great to see!
As Writing Off language impaired individuals is rather common place in all systems😡
Phonological approaches and language building needs to be addressed and CAN be in ALL ages.

“Going nonverbal nonverbal” is NOT the same as the communication #LanguageDisorder/receptive&expressive limitation presented in #ProfoundAutism.
To be unable to speak in times of distress or overwhelm usually stems from an #AnxietyDisorder, if not EEG for #seizures warranted.
Wait until you learn about how I have an advanced degree and would be labeled as "high functioning" but have had many non-functional moments including going nonverbal.
This labeling is stigmatizing and inaccurate
Some of our Speech and Language Therapists and Students were raising awareness for Development LanguageDisorder (DLD for short) today at Glebefields Health Centre, Tipton.

🧠 Teen Wakes Up Speaking Only English After Surgery!
A 17-year-old Dutch boy lost his ability to speak Dutch after knee surgery and could only communicate in English!
🔹 Condition: Foreign Language Syndrome (FLS) – only 9 known cases worldwide
🔹 Recovery: Regained Dutch comprehension after 18 hours, fully recovered the next day
🔹 Possible Cause: Effects of anesthesia on the central nervous system
💡 This rare condition challenges our understanding of language processing in the brain!

And stringing content words (nouns, verbs, adjectives) together isn’t syntax!!!
Syntax includes structural groupings, function words like “the,” and tense markings like “ed”.
We celebrated International DLD Awareness Day this morning at King George Square in Brisbane. Seeing our team members and students enthusiastically working together to raise awareness of Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) was extraordinary.

Life Magazine 1944...“Dyslexia is responsible for 70% of school failures in 6 to 12 year olds". 70 years on we've still not solved this. It’s time for change. Please help us by taking/sharing our global survey bit.ly/2Gf1LXg#ThrowbackThursdays
What's the home environment of children with a developmental language disorder (DLD) like?
A new paper by Elma Blom, @PaulaFikkert and colleagues suggests DLD’s language outcomes are to a limited extent related to language environment at home.

Language skills are vital in the classroom and in daily life. Students with strong language skills are more likely to achieve better outcomes at school and less likely to have difficulties learning to read. To learn more, visit ow.ly/bM4x50NQ5cK#languagedisorder
