What is the Minspeak Language?
Your device uses Minspeak® to help you communicate.
Minspeak is a means of coding vocabulary to a small set of icons that are rich in meaning. Minspeak’s use of icons taps into a person’s natural tendency to associate multiple meanings to pictures. By coding a large vocabulary of words, phrases and whole messages using this small set of icons, Minspeak offers many advantages:
· it is logical in how it represents a person’s language;
· it is easy to learn because it fits into a person’s natural ability to associate many meanings to one picture;
· it promotes language development by providing a rich vocabulary of words that you can combine into sentences;
· because the small set of icons remains the same on a single overlay, you can, with practice, learn to recall your vocabulary automatically;
· it promotes further language development by offering many opportunities for language-learning experiences.
These advantages lead to the ultimate benefit of using Minspeak: it allows for and promotes independent, effective communication.
