if your child is able to understand and follow all the commands given and is able to you hear what you are saying with proper eye contact then do not worry much about the language sskills of the child because speech will gradually come. 
try to avoid tv mobile laptop like screen time and spend more time with the child talking with the child as well as if more people are available to talk with the child and this will also improve the social and language milestones of the child.  
you can meet your doctor for assessment of the child

Hi mom
Every baby is different in achieving milestones. If ur baby is making eye contact and understand what you are saying, follow ur instructions, speaks few words then no need to worry. Some babies they start to talk late. Encourage and motivate ur baby to speak.
