After the baby is born, emotional communication with the mother is mainly through crying. When the diaper gets wet or the baby is hungry, the baby will cry. As the baby grows older, they begin to babble and use short words. It is necessary for the mother to teach the baby short words well. So, how old does the baby usually speak?
1. The development of a baby's language is also a gradual transition process, usually starting from 8 months old to imitate their parents' words. At around one year old, they can speak simple words, and at two years old, their language ability is very strong. Of course, there are differences in the time each baby can speak. If they are over two years old and still cannot speak any individual words, it indicates that their language ability is abnormal and they need to go to the hospital for timely examination.
2. After the baby turns one year old, they can understand the instructions given by adults. At this time, the baby has dozens of vocabulary, often using reduplicated words. When going out, the baby can also greet people around them with simple words. At this time, the mother also needs to teach the baby various polite English, such as saying goodbye and thank you.
3. When babies are three years old, they can speak very coherent sentences and express their meanings very clearly. Many mothers also teach their babies to memorize simple poems. At this time, babies can also say their own names and reasonably grasp the names of their family members. This requires timely sending to preschool and kindergarten to allow babies to have more contact with people and things in the outside world.
