The Test of Narrative Language–Second Edition (TNL-2) is a norm-referenced test that measures children’s narrative language abilities (i.e., children’s ability to understand and tell stories).
Narration is an important aspect of spoken language, not usually measured by oral-language tests, that provides a critical foundation for literacy. The TNL-2 is a measure of the ability to comprehend and produce three types of stories:
-Scripts
-Personal Narratives
-Fictional Narratives
