During the babbling stage of language development, infants experiment with producing a wide range of sounds, including those that may not be present in their native language. As they enter the one-word stage and beyond, they begin to focus on mastering the sounds and structures of their specific language, and sounds that are not used in their language may disappear from their repertoire.
