Then comes the stage where the child begins to compose expressions and come to a basic understanding of syntax, the phase of telegraphic speech, and by the age of three, child has tripled vocabulary and doses of up to 1000 words (Sternberg 2005). Furthermore, from the second to the third year, the child understands the differences in the meaning of the word, names the word for all things and concepts, often looks for objects to name them, and speech is understandable to most listeners. In the 2nd year, the speech consists of nouns and verbs that child has created only (bi-bi, am-am, wow-wow) and those adopted from adults (dad, mom, car, juice). In the second half of the second year of life, the child begins to associate words and create the first sentences.
