What language skills do children acquire in infancy?
What will be an ideal response?
Babbling occurs in the middle of the first year, and infants usually utter their first word at about 10 to 13 months. By 18 to 24 months, infants usually have begun to string two words together. In this two-word stage, they quickly grasp the importance of language in communication, creating phrases such as "Book there," "My candy," "Mama walk," and "Give Papa."
