We can generate a variety of structured motor sequences such as writing or speech and learn to combine elemental actions in novel orders.

Treatments to improve hearing skills include cochlear implants, speech therapy, and learning sign language.[16].[16]
Additionally, some characteristics such as speech difficulties and learning disabilities are not readily apparent during early infancy [ 16].
