Research has shown that by 6 months of age, infants are able to distinguish between phonemes of their native language and similar sounds that are not present in their native language. This ability becomes more refined as they continue to develop their language skills. Option B is incorrect because infants at this age are not yet capable of recognizing orthography. Option C is also incorrect because verbal recall typically does not develop until later in infancy or early childhood.
