Titre: Objective of this study was to understand how language facilitates the foundations of family life in people with Down syndrome. This is because from the observation we had on the field, 75percent of persons with Down syndrome suffer the effect of language in their interactions. 25 percent is not interested in couple life. We therefore, looking at the 50 percent, had to do something to help them through this study to able to get access to a couple life; therefore, the foundation of our study. It was concretely a question for us of identifying how verbal language determines the successful access of people with Down syndrome to a libidinal intimate life; understand how emotional bonds guide the successful access of people with Down syndrome to a suitable married life. The main question was formulated as follows: does the impact of language facilitate the successful access of people with Down syndrome to a couple life? In other words, how the processes of the purposes of language allow people with Down syndrome to establish a successful family life. As an answer to this question, we formulated the following general hypothesis: The impact of language facilitates the successful access of people with Down syndrome to a life as a couple. To better understand this reality, we formulated the following specific hypotheses: Hr1: The impact of verbal language facilitates the successful access of people with Down syndrome to life as a couple. Hr2: The impact of non-verbal language facilitates the successful access of people with Down syndrome to life as a couple. To achieve this objective, the clinical method was used. Data were collected within the CNRPH through semi-structured interviews with three participants. The data were subject to thematic content analysis. The results obtained show that the right level of language promotes the development of executive functions. Although their language is in the majority of cases simplified. It promotes a form of communication that uses simple, clear and direct words and sentences to facilitate understanding and linguistic production. This allows them to easily express their thoughts and feelings in a sequence of interaction with others. This language thus allows the improvement of their executive functions. By reducing cognitive load and the need to use inhibition to suppress irrelevant or interfering information that can impair working memory, it improves their ability to retain and manipulate short-term information needed to perform tasks; complex cognitive skills such as seduction or the expression of feelings. This makes it easier for them to access life as a couple.
