There are many types of speech and language disorders. Speech and language disorders include a number of speech problems (such as articulation disorders, voice disorders, and fluency disorders) and language problems (difficulties in receiving information and expressing language).
Articulation disorders are problems in pronouncing sounds correctly. A child‘s articulation at six or seven years is still not always error-free, but it should be by age eight. A child with an articulation problem might find communication with peers and the teacher difficult or embarrassing. As a result, the child might avoid asking questions, participating in discussions, or communicating with peers. Articulation problems can usually be improved or resolved with speech therapy, though it might take months or years.
Voice disorders are reflected in speech that is hoarse, harsh, too loud, too high-pitched, or too low-pitched. Children with cleft palate often have a voice disorder that makes their speech difficult to understand. If a child speaks in a way that is consistently difficult to understand, refer the child to a speech therapist.
Fluency disorders are disorders affect the natural flow of speech.
They include stuttering, cluttering.
