Children from birth began to compare, and in early childhood, mothers often take the child's talking time to show off, the baby's early parents seem to have a higher status, is the object of pursuit, everyone is like them to ask for experience. Parents who talk late will be very anxious.
The reason for this phenomenon is because everyone has a recognized "truth", that is, babies who talk early are smarter, and babies who talk late are stupid. Of course, there are also places where the statement is reversed, and they also have the cognition of "noble people are late".
Is it really related to the child's IQ or status sooner or later?
First of all, we need to know why humans can talk
We even say that we differ from other mammals that there are living organisms in that we have a language center in our brains, and this language area is mainly distributed in the left hemisphere of our brain.
Before the human age of twelve, the left and right hemispheres jointly controlled our language center, until the human reached the age of twelve, the left side of the brain was basically completed, and our left hemisphere dominated the language system. This is also the reason why before the age of twelve is a critical period for learning languages, because this is when both sides of the brain work together, of course, with half the effort.
In fact, the IQ of children does not have much to do with the sooner or later they speak
The child's early opening can only mean that his language system develops relatively quickly, or the child's desire and ability to express language are relatively strong, which has nothing to do with the child's intelligence. This is like the child's personality, most of the reason is born, just like some children are born to be more active and lively, and some children are shy and quiet from an early age, which is the influence of innate factors.
Normally, babies still murmur and utter monosyllabic words by the fourth month. Clearer words like "mom" and "dad" will not be clear until the age of one, and some simple sentences will be slowly learned before the age of two. By the age of three, children can express their thoughts and desires more clearly and accurately.
Children's language expression needs to go through the process of monolectic sentences, two-word sentences, telegraph sentences, simple sentences and complex sentences, one to one and a half years old is the monolectic sentence stage, at this time the child uses more overlapping words, before the age of two is the two-word sentence stage, you can say two or three words in a sentence, but will not use conjunctions or adverbs to link.
Telegram sentences occur after the child is two years old, before the age of two and a half, during which the child can say sentences with relatively clear meanings, but they are incomplete. Three-year-old children are mostly in the period of simple sentences, and there are accurate subjects and verbs in the discourse, and the structure is complete, mostly single sentences.
Finally, there are mature complex sentences, which are the ones we use in our daily lives, with multiple complex sentences connected by multiple connected single sentences, and can accurately use related words, such as because of so and so on.
How can parents help their children speak earlier?
First, language learning must be blessed by a language environment, just as it is difficult for a dialect-speaking family to teach a Mandarin
Standard kids the same. Parents can talk to their children more often, have verbal conversations with him, and even if the child only makes some meaningless tones, they must also respond to the sounds of their children. This can stimulate the common development of the child's eyes, ears and mouth, and stimulate the baby's language system and nerves.
Second, read more stories and hum nursery rhymes to children, human beings need interest in everything they do, and the so-called interest is plain
Human desires. Children will have love and curiosity about the content of stories and nursery rhymes, and will intentionally or unintentionally imitate them, which will also stimulate children's enthusiasm.
Third, multi-sensory sharing. For example, when reading a story to a child, you can let him look at picture books or cards, so that more senses can participate in this matter. At the same time, the sound of the picture is more attractive to the child's attention than the simple sound, and it is more loved by the child, so we must try to let the baby's five senses participate in it.
In short, the sooner or later the child speaks does not determine the IQ and ability of the child in life later, but parents can use some scientific ways to advance the time of the child's speech slightly.
