Detailed explanation-1: -Linguists ultimately concluded that because Genie had not learned a first language before the critical period had ended, she was unable to fully acquire a language. Furthermore, despite the clear improvements in her conversational competence it remained very low, and her vocalizations remained highly atypical.
Detailed explanation-2: -She was unable to speak. Her communications at first can be described as whispered grunts. Still over time, Genie has shown a remarkable ability to learn to speak and, particularly, to understand speech.
Detailed explanation-3: -Why, when found, was Genie unable to speak coherently or understand language? Genie was raised in isolation and was not around the English language much if at all. Genie was never exposed to or taught signs, meanings, or grammar.
