When a child's early words are context-bound, it means that they are only able to vocalize words in specific contexts or situations but may not be able to use them in other situations. This suggests a limitation in the child's expressive vocabulary and knowledge of word meanings which falls within the prelexical stage of language development. However, it does not necessarily indicate a cognitive delay or a delay in language development as a whole.
