Why is a 1-year-8-month-old not talking?

Patient's question:

Why is a 1-year-old and 8-month-old not interested? As a parent, I'm very worried, afraid that the child's condition will worsen. Regarding the question I just mentioned, I hope the doctor can answer.

Doctor's answer:

Your child is one year and eight months old. This means they are very strong. They learn quickly, which means they don't like to talk much. They repeat what you say.
According to your description of your baby's situation, it is considered normal behavior. However, this period is very important for your baby's language development. It is essential to provide a good language environment for your baby and encourage their language expression.
At this age, your baby is at a critical stage for learning, speaking, and gaining knowledge. Parents should communicate more with their child and take them out to play with other children.
