    Phonological development refers to how children learn to organize sounds into meaning or language during their stages of growth. Sound is at the beginning of language learning. Children have to learn to distinguish different sounds and to segment the speech stream they are exposed to into units – eventually meaningful units – in order to ...

Epena Pedee involves nasal vowels being the trigger, the direction being progressive and affecting glottals , vowels, glides , and liquids within the domain, with obstruents and the alveolar trill being the blockers.

Phonological awareness includes this ability, but it also includes the ability to hear and manipulate larger units of sound, such as onsets and rimes and syllables.
