Patient's question:
He will pronounce "" and "," but at eighteen months, he still never answers back. Yet, he understands a lot of what is said. Watching, I feel anxious. He only shouts "、" and says many words we don't understand—is this normal?Doctor's answer:
The timing of responses varies from person to person, but accumulating language environment and vocabulary is very important. Frequently talking to and reading stories to your baby may not show immediate results, but one day there will be a qualitative leap from quantity. Advice: Engage in more communication with him, repeatedly teach him to say "" (Dad), "" (Mom), and the people and objects around him. Tell him stories before his nap. This advice is for the question "My son could pronounce '' (Dad) and '' (Mom) at ten months, but now he is eighteen and..." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
