Language disorders include problems in comprehending and using language for communication, regardless of the symbol system used (spoken, written, signing, and other). Examples are problems with phonology (sound combinations), morphology (construction of word forms such as plurals and verb tenses), syntax (construction of sentences), semantics (intentions and meanings people attach to words and sentences), and pragmatics (the use to which language is put; it includes nonverbal behavior as well as vocalizations that form the pattern of language). Speech disorders are impairments in the production and use of oral language. They include phonological disorders (understanding the rules for producing the sounds of one's language), voice disorders (pitch, loudness and quality), articulation (making speech sounds), fluency (producing speech with a normal flow), and motor-speech disorders
