I'm hoping you can help me understand more on language processing.
Is it possible to be both an analytical language processor and a gestalt language processor?
I think my DD uses both ways of learning language. She is 23 months and started talking using the usual words ( 13 M ) mama, dada, yum yum, animals sounds etc. Then moved on to 2 and 3 word sentences etc. 'More crackers please' ‘ please mummy “ mommy dress “ bunny sleeps . She does however have a few of learned phrases as I call them although he uses them in the correct context, 'bye bye see you later' 'so cute' 'don’t worry , momma’s here ' . They are phrases she has learned from us, nothing from TV or books . it's nearly like she banks it in his memory to use for again.. Also she love music and sings songs all the time . She has started to answer questions too and understands well. She can follow this sort of instructions : put bunny to bed , give mummy a kiss , bring mummy the blanket , come over here , time to eat / bath etc . She also answers certain open questions like : what’s this ? Where’s and what’s your name or mummy’s name ? Who’s this ? And in return she asks some questions .
She can asks for what she wants with simple sentences or single words . She passes the ASQ and Mchat test and I have exhausted every route now , the HV , the GP and private paediatrician who don’t seem to consider her a GLP .
She doesn’t nod or shake her head but replies with yes or okay if I ask her if she wants food etc
She can very clear say a lot of words and small sentences but she does also goes off with gibberish .
Any GLP moms or any advice would be great ? 😊
