Ahmed Moustafa EI-Mowafi;
Abstract
Specific (idiopathic) language impairment (S.L.l.) is frequently encountered by phoniatricians. Advances in understanding the nature of S.L.l. have been abundant because children with S.L.I. do not present syndromic conditions at birth or present with sensory disorders that lead to early identification.
S.L.I. is defined as a developmental language disorder that occurs in the absence of mental retardation, hearing loss, motor disorder, socio-emotional dysfunction or frank neurological deficit.
Measures of the incidence of S.L.I. in Upper Egypt showing that, it is about 13.9 %.
S.L.I. can be classified into: Expressive specific language impairment (E-S.L.l.), Expressive I Receptive specific language impairment (ER-S.L.l.) and Complex specific language impairment.
There are different theories explaining the etiology of S.L.I. including biological, neurological, familial factors, in addition to perceptual and linguistic deficits.
