People with speech sound disorder may have difficulty producing certain word sounds. For example, they may substitute one sound for another — like saying “wabbit” instead of “rabbit” or “thith” instead of “this.” Early speech therapy intervention will benefit people with misarticulation and increase their speech intelligibility.
Possible signs
-
Distortion in sounds, e.g. saying “thnake” instead of “snake”
-
Substitution of sounds, e.g. saying “wabbit” instead of “rabbit”
-
Elimination of sounds, e.g. saying “mi” instead of “miss”
