At what age do children start talking?

Children are the treasures of their parents. Parents are very concerned about their babies' physical health and development. However, most parents are first-time parents, so they are not clear about the specific physical development time of their children, such as how long it takes for a child to be able to walk, or how long it takes for a child to be able to talk. Now I will explain to you when a child will start to talk.

Every child's situation is different.

Generally, the child's speech learning stage is from September to December: at this time, the baby begins to imitate the pronunciation of adults, begins to associate words with corresponding things, and begins to understand the meaning of words.

Before the age of one and a half, babies mainly say one or two words. For example, they may use "maomao" to mean "I want to wear a hat." These words cannot express the baby's meaning very well, and the pronunciation is often unclear, making them difficult to understand. After one and a half years old, the baby's vocabulary increases significantly, the range of word categories expands significantly, and he can speak sentences composed of multiple words. Although these sentences are very simple at the beginning and there are no syntactic rules to speak of, after all, the baby is beginning to use sentences to express his or her ideas. Afterwards, the sentence structure became more and more complex, the number of words increased, and the content expressed became richer and richer.

Some parents seldom talk to their children, always thinking that the baby is too young and will not understand when they talk to him, so they always let the child perform a monologue. These parents may not know that the baby's brain cells are formed by repeated impressions of the stimulation received, seen and heard in the growing environment. The brain cells also grow due to these stimulations, and these stimulations directly affect the child's language development.

There are several stages in language development: the first is the child's pronunciation stage, the second is the language understanding stage, and the third is the language expression stage. After the baby is born, you can train and guide the baby to pronounce. Parents should communicate with the baby constantly to keep the language information in the baby's brain.

So dear parents, don’t be too anxious. When the special time comes, if the baby’s nutrition is normal, he or she will start talking in a specific period of time. Similarly, other things will be the same. Usually, parents only need to pay more attention to the baby’s nutrition and take the baby to outdoor activities more often.
