Phonemes are the smallest units of sound in a language, and each language has its own set of phonemes. If someone is struggling with the sounds of a language, they are likely having trouble distinguishing and producing the correct phonemes. Morphemes are the smallest units of meaning in a language, syntax refers to the rules for how words are ordered in a sentence, and semantics is the study of meaning in language.
