Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A 2-year-old child should be speaking in simple two-word sentences using a noun and a verb. Any 2-year-old child who does not talk in two-word, noun-verb simple sentences needs a careful assessment to determine the cause because this is beyond a point of normal development. Counting is not an expectation for a 2-year-old child. The child will not be able to speak 20 nouns and 4 pronouns.
