How babies learn to talk

From birth, children will observe their parents, every movement and every word. Children learn things and understand the outside world from their parents. It is very common for babies to learn to speak. At about eight or nine months, children begin to babbling. So let us now understand how to give children the correct guidance?

Some parents believe that children who start speaking late are "late bloomers" and that the later a child starts speaking, the smarter he or she is. In fact, this is not true and this view is incorrect.

Experts say that babies start babbling and saying a few simple words and sentences when they are about one year old. If they still cannot speak by the age of two or three, it is medically known as speech delay. There are many reasons for speech delay. Usually there are three aspects that affect children's speech: physiological reasons, psychological reasons and family reasons.

From a physiological point of view, if a child has hearing problems or abnormal pronunciation organs, it will lead to inability to pronounce normally. For example, if a child has abnormalities such as a short frenulum, cleft lip, or cleft palate, there will be abnormal airflow and difficulty in vocal coordination, affecting pronunciation; if a child has hearing impairment, it will also affect language development. If a child has autism or intellectual disability, he or she may not be able to speak.

However, most children's refusal to speak is caused by their family environment. Some parents often say things that their children cannot say, and over time, the children get used to hearing them and become unwilling to speak. There are also a very small number of parents who force their children to speak or make fun of their children's inaccurate pronunciation, inadvertently hurting the children's self-esteem, and the children become unwilling to speak.

In addition, if a child has been raised listening to dialects since birth and the adults around him do not speak standard Mandarin, the child may have inaccurate pronunciation when learning Mandarin.

In the above article, we introduced how babies learn to speak. First of all, you can let your child live in a warm and happy family. This will create a very relaxed and active atmosphere for the child, and the child can better adapt to the environment and learn to speak.
