There is different levels of autism just like there is different levels of functioning of other syndromes. Some are very highly functioning which means they can speak close to normally, they dress themself, eat with relatively little help and other normal things. the other end of the spectrum are those that have a very hard time doing even the simplest of tasks and may require institutionalization to help them live. Hope this is helpful

Yes. People with Asperger's in particular usually speak realtively normally. They may (or may not) speak monotone. Some speak with little or no emotion in the voice (not to say they don't have emotions, just some have difficulty expressing it)
Around 62 - 88% of all those on the "Autism Spectrum" have aspergers, as opposed to "classic" autism like my niece. Classic autism is the kind that usually doesn't speak much. I am working hard to get my 10 year old niece to be able to talk.

Yes, many of them can. It depends on their functionality level and things. It may take a while to get their attention or come up with a subject that they're interested in, but absolutely they can talk...in fact, some probably have better grammar than you do.

Yes.
I'm blown away by somebody asking a question like that, like that, though -- take the time, and have the respect for people, to write properly if you want thoughtful answers.

it depends on the degree of the disability .... the ones at the lower end of the spectrum tend not to be verbal but those at the higher end tend to have a lot of verbal communication ....
