Read this excerpt from Helen Keller’s autobiography The Story of My Life.
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

She recognizes the connection between objects and words.

Explanation:

Helen Keller had already begun forming letters with her fingers, so water was not the first word she wrote.

Helen had broken the doll way before she went to the well. In fact, she forgets the frustration she felt before after she touches the doll and she says she regretted the doll after.

The honeysuckle thing is irrelevant to this question.

Helen could not understand the connection between words and objects because mug and water were essentially the same thing to her. Once she was away from the vessels, the jugs, mugs and saucers, and felt the water in the well gush in between her fingers, Helen understood "water" but more importantly, she understood words.
