tal vez este texto sirva de ayuda:
Letter are the first building block to understanding language. Time and time again, however, parents have stated that their children can communicate but still does not understand the concept of language. Communication, they say can, occur through the use of PEC (Picture Exchange Communication) or other means, even without understanding the alphabet. Well, that is certainly true. However, not understanding the "concept of letters" , yet, does not mean that the child is still not constantly striving to "break the code". In fact, autistic adults often say they were constantly trying to "break the code"... to figure out the pieces or "parts" that make up the whole.
