Receptive and Expressive Language
how we understand language and the language we use
Receptive language refers to understanding what others say. It includes following instructions and understanding a range of different spoken words, sentences, questions, and stories.
Expressive language refers to using words to express thoughts and needs. It includes using correct grammar, connecting ideas together, and using the correct word order to describe an object, tell stories or talk about something that has happened.
