Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much and please don’t compare your baby with any other child and also most of the babies start speaking properly up to three years of age and please talk to your baby more and share nursery rhymes with your baby on daily basis.
Take care

Answer

the child will be able to say meaningful words by 15 months to 18 months of age and by 2 years of age the child will be able to say 2 or 3 words with meaning in a sentence.
sometimes the child may not be able to talk but the child would be able to understand and follow thes commands and orders given by the parents. 
if you feel that the child is having some delay it is advisable to meet the pediatrician who will decide if the child requires any therapy or not in the form of speech therapy as welld as other modes of therapy for development in social and language milestone.
