    About this ebook

    Word pronunciation is the human ability to enunciate or articulate sounds, words and sentences when talking. This includes the basic parts of speech, the sounds of a language or phonemes, which are organized into words. The words are organized by grammar into sentences, which people use to express a whole series of complicated thoughts.

    What are the Symptoms of Word Pronunciation Difficulties?

    All children in their normal development may have problems with certain sounds when articulating or enunciating a word, which they usually outgrow. The question is, "At what point would you decide that the child has an enunciation or articulation difficulty?" This book will help you make an evaluation to decide that there are no problems, just a few problem sounds, or so many problems that you should go ahead and refer her to the school speech specialist.
