| Phonology | Refers to system of sounds that make up language. |
| Phoneme or sound | Most basic unit of language |
| Phone | Phoneme spoken aloud and creates sound |
| Syllables | Units |
| Onset | Beginning consonants ( SW-im) |
| Rimes | Letters that follow beginning sound (sw-IM) |

| Morphology | Refers to forms of words (roots and affixes) |
| Semantics | Refers to the meaning of words |
| Syntax | Refers to the way speakers use morphemes together to make sentences with meaning |
| Receptive oral language | Ability to understand what is being said |
| Expressive oral language | Ability to use language to communicate ideas appropriately |
| Nonverbal communication | Refers to any way communication occurs outside of speech |
| Phonemes | Distinct units of sound and are the basic units of language |

| Syntactic cues | Based on the structure of language and are regarded as the brains second most efficient dying system while reading |
| Graphophonic cues | System is based on applying sound (phoneme) -symbol (grapheme or letter) knowledge while reading |
