Prenatal language learning is an important part of development. During the third trimester of gestation, a baby in the womb can hear the mother's voice clearly, and can learn the rhythms, tones, and sequences of whatever languages the mother speaks. -

1 Year Old
Toddlers will suddenly seem to understand everything you say. I would tell my daughter it is lunch and she would crawl and when she mastered walking she walked over to her high chair. She would point to a toy like a "ball" becasue she wanted to play with it. Or if she wanted to go outside she would say "out?" -
2 year old
Not only did my daughter understand most of what I said to her, but she would answer me with more than just one word. For example if she was thirsty she would say "cup juice" or "mommy ouch" and would be crying if she hurt herself
