Abstract

This paper is an attempt to discover the types of language disorder experienced by children suffering autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The data were in the form of phonemes, words, phrase, clause, and sentences used in the utterances of 2 children suffering ASD at Yayasan Tali Kasih School Medan. Based on the analysis, some kinds of language disorder experienced by children with ASD are phonological, morphological, syntactical, and semantic disorders. It can be inferred that language acquisition of children with ASD is notably different from normal children. This research also proves that they have difficulty in language production and language comprehension (mixed expressive-receptive language disorder). Then, language production in autistic children, especially speaking skill, occurs very slowly and they even take a long time to be capable of using sentences properly and correctly.
