What are device "languages"?
A language system is how letters, words, phrases, and sentences are organized in the device’s communication software. Some language systems rely heavily on the alphabet for communication.
Other systems represent words and phrases with symbols, pictures or icons because many children are able to communicate before they are able to read and spell. Also, as vocabulary increases, combining symbols for words allows for more vocabulary with fewer keystrokes.
What if my child can't use his/her hands to touch the device?
There are numerous options for access and communication, including eye tracking, head pointing, switches, joystick options, and more.
