Is specific language impairment (SLI) the same as language learning impairment (LLI)? If not, what are the differences? If so, this article should describe the FastForWord treatment developed by Tallal and Merzenich.--Tdkehoe 15:56, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

iirc, I've seen papers written by Tallal on specific language impairment so it is likely that the two are the same, I wouldn't be happy with stating this as fact until I'd done further research. You might want to make a page on the FastForWord treatment maybe then that could be linked from here? - FrancisTyers 16:10, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
