Hello, language development delay refers to a condition where a child's oral expression ability or language comprehension ability is significantly behind the normal developmental level of their peers due to various reasons. Factors such as intellectual disability, hearing impairment, dysarthria, central nervous system diseases, and poor language environment are common causes of language development delay in children. Therefore, if a child shows signs of language development delay, it is important to identify the underlying cause.
