In addition, it aims to describe the occurrence of communication disorders. In this study, the researchers used the theory on the type of communication disorder (Paul, 2008). As the findings, there are forty-three data of the five types of communication disorders namely, repetition of words, minimal response, limitation of communication function, use of unusual words, and low frequency.
