    Molly’s areas of weakness are semantics, pragmatics, syntax/morphology. Semantics is one of her areas of weakness because Molly has a limited expressive vocabulary. For example, during her conversation with her therapist she was asked “tell me about this pet”, molly answers by saying “Got a pet”, she is unable to describe how her pet looks or what’s its name, the only thing she’s able to express to the therapist is that her family does have a pet. Many kids by this age have a vocabulary of approximately 2,600 words and are able to give descriptive details of their pet and keep up the conversation by using more than two words, which leads to the next issue.
