This is when a character never learned how to speak. This can be due to being Younger Than They Look, deafness, a curse, an intellectual disability, or simply not having anything to say. Could also be the result of a person having little or no human contact growing up, possibly as the result of being Raised By Animals (such a character is often still a child) or having a particularly extreme case of Parental Neglect. Often the case for a Cute Mute. Sometimes a silent character may learn to speak quite suddenly. If the character does not know how to speak as a result of being deaf, expect them to use sign language. This character might double as The Unintelligible if they only communicate with certain sounds. In some cases, the character understands speech just fine, and just has trouble reproducing it. Someone who doesn't speak because they are physically incapable of speech is The Speechless; someone who chooses not to speak is Elective Mute; someone who is implied to speak but never does so onscreen is The Voiceless. Note that this is in-universe; if the work is about Nearly Normal Animals who can talk to each other, and one of the animal characters can't even talk to other animals (e.g Ed the Hyena from The Lion King), then it's not this trope. If animals hear a human character speaking a human language but humans hear the character making animal noises, it is this trope. Not to be confused with Dumb Struck, which is when characters are unable to speak due to trauma they've suffered. Examples |

Belgariad: The little boy, Errand/Eriond, is initially only capable of only saying the word "Errand", which is why the party takes to calling him that. It's explained that when Zedar found him, all he said was "I have an errand for you, boy"; Errand repeated the one word and followed him. Over the next two books, he learns more words, but he can only say one-word sentences. After the Time Skip between the Belgariad and the Malloreon, he learns how to speak properly. In the Malloreon his real name is revealed to be Eriond; he explains that he picked up the word 'Errand' from Zedar because it sounded familiar to him. | |

The Living Wake: According to K. Roth, his best friend Mills didn't know how to speak when they first met, so he gifted him a dictionary. By the time of the film, Mills is quite verbose and eloquent, so clearly it helped. | |

The Simpsons: Maggie Simpsons, of course this could be justified as she is only ever shown as a baby (and is able to speak when she's older, though it always happens offscreen), is sometimes implied to be developmentally behind even for her young age. Marge worries about it in "Lisa's First Word" (though Maggie does say her first word in that episode, nobody else hears it), and in "The Great Wife Hope," Marge's friends gossip about her lack of speech and speculate that it's the result of her witnessing something traumatic in their house. It's of particular note since Maggie is a very Brainy Baby, apparently fully comprehending what everybody else says and occasionally shown to be able to read and write with ease. | |

We Bare Bears: In the episodes that take place when the bears are kids, younger Ice Bear is almost completely silent and communicates via body language. In "The Island", little Grizzly mentions that they should really teach him to speak. He does speak as an adult(?), albeit not a whole lot. | |

Sovereign Seven: A strange case involving Network. She and her family are entirely telepathic, a mark of royalty in her world. As such, however, she never learned to speak and Never Learned to Read, or anything else for that matter. She is only able to do those things by using her psychic powers to piggyback off of the abilities of the people around her, and lives in mortal terror of being made "head-blind". When her abilities fail towards the end of the series, she's little better than an infant. | |

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance: Soren reveals in his B Support with Ike, that neither of his previous two caretakers actually taught him how to speak, a fact his younger self didn’t realize until he first interacted with civilization, at the age of six after his second caretaker died leaving him alone. Interestingly, he did note that he understood what people were saying and even notes that he could read and write better than most villagers, but this was likely due to his second caretaker teaching him to read and write for the purpose of having him keep alive his magical knowledge, and both of his caretakers probably enjoyed having him not talk back while they spewed verbal insults. | |

Me, Who Dove into the Heart of the World: The autistic child, Karen, has been so severely neglected that by age nine she communicates only in grunts. Isabelle takes her in and teaches her to speak, starting with the pronouns "Me" and "You." Karen learns to read at the same time she learns to talk, so Isabelle sticks labels on everything in the house and has the staff wear name tags showing their job titles. Soon Karen talks nonstop, gleefully reciting lists of nouns and things she heard on the radio. | |

Music (2021): The title character, Music, (Maddie Ziegler) is a non-verbal autistic, and as such is able to say very little other than "Make your eggs", "Go to bed" and "braid your hair". At the end of the movie, Music utters "Don't go" when Music's half-sister Zu contemplates sending her to a special needs group home and also sings a duet with Zu at Ebo's ex-wife's wedding in the final scene. | |

The Wild Thornberrys: Donnie only speaks gibberish due to the fact that he was raised by orangutans shortly after his parents were killed by poachers. In "Two's Company", Donnie comes across his Distaff Counterpart; a nameless young girl who was raised by jaguars. Just like him, she only speaks in incoherent babbling, presumably because she's had no human parents to raise her. |

Pokémpanions: In "Mon in the Moon", Mewtwo mentions that he didn't learn to speak until he was about five due to the fact that his parents had abandoned him in the woods before he had opened his eyes for the first time. He later learned to speak from overhearing Carnivine and Carla's conversations at night, but he didn't speak in proper grammar. Mewtwo's speech improved after he went to school, however. | |
