My 5 years old dd has severe language delays & asd.
Recently she has started to express herself a lot more, by using phrases taken from tv shoes, or from friends at school.
So the sentences she uses are copied, yes, but they are used correctly.
Example, when her toy broke, she said " why is it not working" with the same intonation as a tv character.
Is this echolalia? A positive form?
