    Exploring Bilingualism in Non-Verbal Individuals

    Send us a text In this episode of The Exceptional Humans Podcast, host Penelope delves into the intriguing question: Can someone be non-verbal and bilingual? She explores the definition of non-verbal communication, its prevalence in individuals with severe autism spectrum disorder (ASD level 3), and the various augmentative and alternative communication methods. Penelope discusses the cultural and societal assumptions that often overlook bilingualism in non-verbal individuals and shares real-life examples highlighting the challenges and implications of excluding bilingual elements in argumentative and alternative communication. The episode emphasises the importance of acknowledging bilingualism to achieve better outcomes for those with non-verbal communication preferences. 00:00 Introduction to The Exceptional Humans Podcast 00:24 Understanding Non-Verbal Communication 01:25 Challenges and Assumptions in Bilingualism 02:32 Behavioural Perspective on Language 03:37 Real-World Examples of Non-Verbal Bilingualism 05:56 Conclusion and Final Thoughts 06:08 Acknowledgements and References Sources Johnston, J.M.
