Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the level of speech and language acquisition by two children with brain-related developmental disorders. Such children, despite proper physical hearing as well as cognitive and emotional and social development, have difficulties acquiring speech and language spontaneously and naturally from the beginning of their development. These are children with alalia type disorders, with speech underdevelopment of cortical origin (with aphasic type speech underdevelopment). I make a comparison of the speech and language development level recorded in the case of such children at the beginning of the process of therapy and later at its various stages. My intention is to present changes in the tested children’s linguistic competence development based on the collected linguistic material. In the case where disorders of cortical origin have been found, the prognosis of speech and language development depends on various factors. It is always a process where the mutual infl uence of the disintegration mechanism and proper speech development is visible.
