Description
Esther Moraleda-Sepúlveda and others compare language skills in children with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and Down syndrome in a 2026 study. Gene-based syndromes offer a frame for language limits, and syndrome patterns can steer help.
Forty children with each syndrome, matched for age and nonverbal ability and aged 6 to 16, took stock understanding and speaking language tests. The deletion group showed stronger listening vocabulary and syntax but weaker morphosyntax and practical use, with word stock rising with age. The Down syndrome group scored lower overall, chiefly in morphosyntax, with scant age gains. Teachers gain distinct patterns for fitted language support.
