As shown in TD children learning Dutch and German, the ability to establish contextual cohesion serves as the driving force to proceed from a simple, lexical system to a more complex, functional system. It is argued that precisely this ability is challenged in children with DLD. The present book offers an account of the functional linguistic features fit to achieve contextual cohesion in language production. It provides a rationale for practitioners to develop linguistically founded tools to be used in speech therapy UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110712025 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9783110712025 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9783110712025/original ER -
