O a suʻega faʻalogo mo tamaiti?

O nei suʻega e fua ai le faʻalogo o lau tama. E ui lava o le faʻalogo e mafai ona tupu i soʻo se tausaga, faʻafitauli faʻalogo i le pepe ma le amataga o le fanau e mafai ona i ai ni matuia faʻaiuga. E mafua ona o le faʻalogo masani e taua mo le gagana atiaʻe i pepe ma tama meamea. E oʻo foʻi i le le lava o le faʻalogo e mafai ai ona faʻafaigata ai i se tamaititi ona malamalama i le gagana tautala ma aʻoaʻo e tautala.

Ole faʻalogo masani e tupu pe a oʻo galu galu i totonu o ou taliga, ma faʻatetetete ai lau faʻalogo. O le gatete e minoi ai galu i totonu o le taliga, lea e faʻaosofia ai neula sela e lafoina faʻamatalaga leo i lou faiʻai. O lenei faʻamatalaga ua faʻaliliuina i leo e te lagona ai.

Ole faʻalogo e tupu pe a iai se faʻafitauli i le tasi poʻo le sili atu o vaega o le taliga, neula i totonu o le taliga, poʻo le vaega o le faiʻai e faʻatonutonu le faʻalogo. E tolu ituaiga autu ole faʻalogo:

• Faʻafitauli Lenei ituaiga o faʻalogo leiloa e mafua mai i le poloka o leo lafo i totonu o taliga. E taatele ile tama meamea ma tamaiti laiti ma e tele na mafua mai ile faʻamaʻi ole taliga poʻo le suavai ile taliga. O le le lelei faʻalogo e masani lava ona agamalu, le tumau, ma mafai ona togafitia.
• Sensorineurual (e taʻua foi o le tutuli tuli). Lenei ituaiga o faʻalogo leiloa e mafua mai i se faʻafitauli ma le fausaga o taliga ma / pe ma neula e faʻatonutonu faʻalogo. Atonu o loʻo iai i le taimi na fanau mai ai pe faʻaalia tuai i le olaga. Sensorineural faʻalogo e masani ona tumau. Lenei ituaiga o faʻalogo leiloa amata mai agamalu (le mafai ona lagona nisi leo) i loloto (le mafai ona lagona soʻo se leo).
• Fefiloi, o se tuʻufaʻatasia o le conductive ma sensorineural faʻalogo leiloa.
