Study Notes
Language Development in Children
- Crying is the first form of language in children.
- From 0-2 months, infants produce vowel-like sounds, such as "aaaaah" and "oooooh", mainly using "a" and "o" sounds.
Stage 2: 3-6 months
- Infants start babbling, adding consonants to sounds, producing sounds like "maaaaa", "baaaaa", and "غاااااااا" (mainly using "a", "o", and "e" vowels and "b", "m", "d", and "t" consonants).
End of First Year
- By the end of the first year, infants develop a link between communication and sound-making signals, marking the onset of language.
Stage 3: Beginning of 2nd Year
- One-word utterances emerge, with only a few words (around 5 words) being used, such as "Ma", "ba", "da", and "bab bab bab".
Stage 4: 18 months
- Vocabulary explosion/spurt occurs, with children learning words at a faster rate (20-50 words).
- Overgeneralizations occur, where children use words to refer to broader categories, such as "baba" for all men, "mama" for all women, and "dada" for all children.
Stage 5: Just before end of 2nd year and beginning of 3rd year
- Two-word utterances emerge, such as "dad go", "mamy milk", and "go sleep".
- Telegraphic speech (abbreviated language) is used, with limited inflections and overgeneralizations.
- Children's language is limited to their immediate environment.
Stage 6: Third year to beginning of 4th year
- Complete utterances emerge, with some conversational skills.
- Children's language expands to include more vocabulary items and a wider range of environmental contexts.
- Metalinguistic awareness develops, with children understanding concepts like "bad words".
Stage 7: 5-6 years
- Children possess the basic syntactic, semantic, phonological, and phonetic systems of their first language (L1).
- They achieve adult-like fluency and good mastery of L1 knowledge.
- Conversational skills become more advanced and similar to those of adults.
- Deeper and wider metalinguistic awareness develops.
Stage 8: 7-13 years
- Children develop more complex, adult-like conversational skills.
- Grammar and knowledge of L1 become more advanced and complex.
