COMMUNICATIVE DISORDERS Meaning and Definition

  1. Communicative disorders, also known as communication disorders, refer to a broad range of conditions that affect an individual's ability to understand, produce, and use language effectively for communication purposes. These disorders can manifest in various forms and impact different aspects of communication such as speech, language, voice, and social interaction.

    Speech disorders are characterized by difficulties in producing sounds accurately or fluently, resulting in speech that may be unclear or unintelligible. Examples of speech disorders include articulation disorders (such as lisps or mispronunciations) and fluency disorders (such as stuttering).

    Language disorders involve impairments in the comprehension and/or expression of spoken or written language. Individuals with language disorders may struggle with grammar, vocabulary, understanding complex instructions, or organizing their thoughts logically.

    Voice disorders affect the production of vocal sounds, resulting in abnormalities in pitch, loudness, quality, or resonance. Voice disorders can be caused by various factors such as vocal abuse, vocal cord nodules or polyps, or neurological conditions.

    Social communication disorders (SCD), also known as pragmatic language disorders, impact an individual's ability to use language effectively in social situations. People with SCD may have difficulty understanding and using nonverbal cues, following conversational rules, or adapting their language based on the needs of different listeners.

    Communicative disorders can range from mild to severe and can be acquired or present from birth. They can have significant implications on an individual's educational, vocational, and social functioning. Treatment for communicative disorders typically involves speech-language therapy, which aims to improve the affected individual's communication skills, enhance their quality of life, and promote successful interactions in various settings.

Etymology of COMMUNICATIVE DISORDERS

The word "communicative" originates from the Latin word "communicare", which means "to share" or "to make common". This Latin word is a combination of "com", meaning "together", and "munus", meaning "gift" or "duty". The prefix "dis-" indicates negation or reversal.

The term "disorders" has its root in the Old French word "desordre", which means "disorder" or "confusion". This word in turn stems from the Latin word "disordinare", which means "to disturb" or "to upset".

When these two words are combined, "communicative disorders" refers to conditions or difficulties that disrupt one's ability to share, exchange, or convey thoughts, ideas, or information effectively.
