Abstract

Abstract: Speech development is a complex process that plays a crucial role in human communication. This research paper aims to analyze various theories of speech development, exploring the factors and mechanisms that contribute to the acquisition and refinement of language skills in children. By examining prominent theories such as behaviorist, nativist, interactionist, and social-pragmatic approaches, this paper provides valuable insights into the theoretical frameworks that have shaped our understanding of speech development. Understanding these theories can enhance our knowledge of how children acquire language and inform interventions for individuals with speech and language disorders.
