Typical language development

Language development is a gradual process that begins in childhood and often continue until age 7 or 8 As with any area of development, children develop the ability to intervene at different speeds and times. Here we offer a typical set of guidelines from childhood to get an idea of where your child may be developing within this spectrum.

Newborn - 3 months: Sounds

The baby is that it seems very limited, since the oral structureand vocal cords are not as well developed. Between 2 and 3 months, the child is better able to control its sound, because it has a better control of his vocal cords and muscles of the mouth. Children begin to laugh in these months and begin in the back of the mouth sounds like "goo" and "GA" to do so. They begin to recognize the different voices and inflection and tone in your voice.

4-6 months: Play Vocal

Now wih a better control over their mouth muscles to make themNoises that sound like the speech. Your baby is now experimenting with putting together the sounds and syllables for practice. Your baby has also discovered other noises that sound like squeaks, screams and tones of raspberry.

6-11 months: Babbling

Stammering is the repetition of syllables in order as "ba-ba-ba". Unfortunately, at this age if the child says "ma-ma" or "da-da", really babble and purposes generally independent of thisplayful sounds. He practices his oral motor skills he will need later for the language itself.

12-18 months: the first words

Midway between this month, the child should begin to provide the real words to say. Even in this period the children are experimenting with strings of different combinations of sounds and syllables often these strings will sound intonation patterns of adults. Your child may seem really say things, but if you listen carefully, what you hear, usuallyjibberish. This is called jargon. You will recognize as a word, a word, it is important annex to this report.

18-36 months: rapid development of language

Children develop speech rapidly during this period and because their oral structures are not yet fully developed, often simplify the pronunciation of words that are trying to say. Some simplifications are typically dropped word endings ( "it read," be "), the simplification of consonant blends (" spoon "will be "Poon"), dropped a syllable ( "Phone" will "tephon"), will produce sounds in front of the mouth, which should be in the back of the mouth ( "cat" be prepared "dat or" tat ") sustituting a simple and healthy for a difficult subject ( "Rain" will be "Wain").

If your child has any of these simplifications between 18 months and 3 years, you know that it is perfectly normal. But if your child are part of this simplification on four orfive, I encourage you to take him for a speech and language skills assessment.

In recent months, most children most of the vowels produced correctly. The progression of the consonants is generally as follows: B, M, P and H are usually the first sounds of a child is ready for immediate use. Come the next group of sounds that are usually f, w, t, n, D, K, G and ng. Sound "s" may seem early, but often do not "sound very clear for a few years, this is the sound usually develops slowly.

3-4Years: sounds more difficult

Between these years, the remaining and most difficult sounds are learned in general, including L, R, sh, ch, dg, y °, V and Z, is often the case that even if these sounds are acquired between 3-4 years They are usually not monitored for some years after that - perhaps even as late as 7 or 8

I hope this helps you with some guidelines for the development of your child's language. So, if the child is two or three or even fouris not that the 's' sound or the word "sound" correctly, this is normal. But we also know what to do to ensure that this long wait then to see if the child can do these sounds correctly when they were just to see how! Sometimes this is just for them (a couple of times actually descend to their level and show them the mouth sound) and they are able to mimic what can be done.
