Abstract

This paper reports on the training given to a child with cleft palate and having various problems with articulation. Living in a home for underprivileged children, the child was also hard of hearing and suffered from delayed speech development. In the course of treatment, developmental errors in articulation such as the omission of initial consonants and syllables and the assimilation of sounds were observed. The child also acquired consonants in a different order than is normally the case: velar sounds were acquired before dental/alveolar sounds. The training gave particular attention to training in the sounds/t, s, and ts/. As the child had good velopharyngeal closure, articulation problems related to cleft palate markedly improved in the course of training.
