- By the age of three, children's vocabulary has increased to hundreds of words, and their pronunciation sounds a lot like adult language (Yule, 2006).
- Kids are helped with their language development based on their home environment. Caregivers who spend a lot of time with young children engage in caregiver speech (Yule, 2006). This speech is known as baby talk. Birner (2023) add that around one to one and half year old, children begin to say single words with meaning.
