Speech disorder
Type of communication disorder in which normal speech is disrupted
A speech disorder or speech impairment is a long-lasting communication problem, caused by problems with speaking.

Common speech impairments are stuttering, lisps and rhotacism (inability or difficulty pronouncing the R sound). Someone who cannot speak at all is called mute.[1]
