Beverly Goldfield: 我认为婴儿大约在六个月大的时候开始理解词语。在他们出生前的几个月,他们就已经开始听到声音,尤其是妈妈的声音。出生后,他们更喜欢听人说话的声音。他们最初理解的词语通常是他们可以操作的事物的名称,比如“妈妈”、“爸爸”,或者“饼干”、“袜子”等。我认为婴儿的大脑就像海绵一样,不断吸收周围世界的信息,所以父母或其他家庭成员多和婴儿说话,有助于他们理解词语的含义。 Anna Goldfield: 我觉得妈妈说的很有道理。我的经历也证明了这一点。虽然我说话比较早,但是走路比较晚。我在九个月大的时候就开始说第一个词“香蕉”,而且从那以后就一直说个不停。我认为多和婴儿说话,可以帮助他们更快地理解和学习语言。
