definition of an infinitely productive 
communication system, such as is  con-
stituted  by a language. But, in fact, 
speech is the universal material of most 
human language, and the conditions of 
speaking and  hearing  have, throughout 
human history, shaped and determined 
its development. The study of the anato-
my,  physiology,  neurology, and  acous-
tics of speaking is called phonetics; this 
subject is dealt with further below Ar-
ticulatory phonetics relates to the physi-
ology of speech, and acoustic phonetics 
relates to the  physics  of  sound  waves: 
their transmission and reception.One of 
the dictionary meanings of speech is the 
act of expressing or the faculty of de-
scribing feelings and thoughts or percep-
tions by words, something spoken or 
vocal communication. It is a specifically 
human capacity to communicate verbal-
ly or vocally with the use of syntactic 
combinations from diverse vocabularies.
Each word spoken has a phonetic combi-
nation of certain sound units. Speech is 
created by vocabularies, syntax, and a set 
of sound units. It is the verbal way of 
communicating. The following compo-
nents are a part of speech:
Articulation, which means the way 
speech sounds are produced.
Voice, the breathing process and the 
vocal folds used to produce sounds.
Fluency, the rhythm required to speak 
without hesitation.
Simplifying the whole concept, speech 
expresses how a spoken message needs to 
be communicated
When we linguists refer to the 
term  speech  we are referring to three 
things: 
articulation/phonological 
skills, speech fluency and voice. We are 
looking at a child’s ability to:
Physically produce the individual 
sounds and sound patterns of his/her lan-
guage (Articulation).
Produce speech with appropriate 
rhythm, and free of Stuttering behavior.
Produce speech with an appropri-
ate vocal quality for his/her age and sex
While speech involves the physical 
motor ability to talk, language is a sym-
bolic, rule governed system used to con-
vey a message. In English, the symbols 
can be words, either spoken or written. 
We also have gestural symbols, like shrug-
ging our shoulders to indicate “I don’t 
know” or waving to indicate “Bye Bye” or 
the raising of our eye brows to indicate 
that we are surprised by something.
According to ASHA, the American 
Speech Language Hearing Association, 
defines language: Language is made up of 
socially shared rules that include the fol-
lowing:
What words mean (e.g., “star” can re-
fer to a bright object in the night sky or a 
celebrity)
How to make new words (e.g., friend, 
friendly, unfriendly)
How to put words together (e.g., “Peg 
walked to the new store” rather than “Peg 
walk store new”)
What word combinations are best in 
what situations (“Would you mind mov-
ing your foot?” could quickly change to 
“Get off my foot, please!” if the first re-
quest did not produce results).
Some of these “rule” systems that gov-
ern a language can include syntax, seman-

In conclusion, we can summarize all ide-

1.Language is the communication of 
feelings and thoughts through a system of
