language disorder
Communication processing difficulty
A language disorder is a condition affecting a person's ability to understand or produce language—distinct from speech disorders, which involve the physical production of sounds.
Someone with a language disorder may struggle to find words, form sentences, or comprehend what others say: The child was diagnosed with a developmental language disorder.
Language disorders can be developmental or acquired through brain injury.
