Oral language development refers to the process by which individuals acquire and improve their ability to use spoken language to communicate effectively. This process typically begins in early childhood and continues throughout a person's life. During oral language development, individuals learn to understand and produce sounds, words, sentences, and eventually more complex forms of language, such as storytelling, debates, and presentations. This development is influenced by exposure to language, interactions with others, and cognitive and social factors. Effective oral language development is essential for individuals to effectively communicate, understand others, and participate in various social and academic settings.
