Linguistic intelligence, in neurodiversity, refers to an individual’s capacity to comprehend, manipulate, and produce language effectively. This includes skills such as reading, writing, speaking, and understanding the nuances of communication. A scientifically defined facet of Howard Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences, linguistic intelligence emphasizes the diverse ways people engage with language, showcasing unique strengths and preferences. It’s crucial to recognize that linguistic intelligence varies among individuals, and for children with special needs, fostering these language skills can enhance their overall communication abilities.
