Avik has no unnamed toys because each of them refers to one of his classmates. When he comes back from school, he continues communicating with them in his own way. Avik doesn’t have enough verbal skills, so he is not able to speak properly at his 14. Mostly he uses separate words, sounds, body language, and so on. Besides that, very important tools, which help Avik and other people with speech disorders to socialize, are augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices.
