Abstract

This study aims to provide a clear conception of the different models of acquisition of language levels for children with intellectual disabilities with special needs. To achieve this, the two researchers reviewed some of the literature and previous studies that addressed this topic. And using the descriptive comparative approach between the normal development of normal children and mentally handicapped children by following the growth of the language levels represented in the phonological level, the grammatical level, the semantic level and their pragmatic level. And it became clear by comparing the two groups of children, that mentally handicapped children follow the same universal principles regarding the acquisition of the four language levels, but with different lags than they have compared to normal children.
