A. Baby start to say monosyllables like ma, da at 6 -7 months of age.  And Bisyllables like mama, dada, at 9-10 months of age  Baby start to say 2 words at 12-14 months of age  And jargon speech come at 15 -16 months of age.  Baby can speak simple sentences of 2-3 words at 20-24 months of age.  Some babys achieve these at early and some may be delay in achieving that.  Spend more time with ur baby only  Encourage ur baby to speak  Avoid overcrowding of multiple languages at home to speak with baby Better to speak in mother tongue and teach that language to baby first  visit ur nearest pediatrician once

A. Talk more to your baby. Ask a lot of questions to baby and wait to her a response. Encourage baby to give an answer. If baby tries to speak, wait listen and ask questions. Keep talking to baby and answer to all the babbles. Tell your nay everything you do like I'm taking you to park I'm changing your diaper every little thing trybto explain to your baby and baby. Just keep talking and respond to everything your baby babbles or speaks
