Abstract
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that significantly affects communication and language abilities. This paper discusses the distinctive language characteristics observed in children with autism, including speech development delays, echolalia, pragmatic language impairments, nonverbal communication deficits, and atypical prosody. Furthermore, it discusses the neurobiological foundations of these language impairments, common assessment methodologies, and the importance of individualized therapeutic interventions in enhancing communicative abilities. Understanding these linguistic features is essential for the formulation of effective intervention strategies. This paper also highlights the critical roles of caregivers and educators in language development and reviews recent advancements in research supporting language acquisition in autistic children.
