Mother Lychee Enlightenment Question 018 ▏ Several stages of children's daily English conversation

The acquisition of any language must conform to the law of language learning. Language is not mysterious. Every child is born to speak. This is a natural physiological function. All babies of

come to this world with language ability. Parents must believe that children are born with this ability, and their language acquisition ability is even much stronger than that of adults. Language learning must conform to the laws of language acquisition.


can understand and speak words at one year old, these words are usually said one by one in isolation, this single-word sentence stage will last two months to a year.

One and a half year old language skills leap forward. vocabulary grows and begins to combine words to form the simplest sentence.


Three to four years old can be used freely. Between the age of two and three and a half years, children can suddenly speak grammatically fluent language. This conversion is so fast that researchers are amazed. So far, no one has been able to understand the mystery. The above stages of


are also inspiring for second language learning. We must follow this process, insist on guiding children to learn, and eventually acquire them naturally.


In daily conversation, whether it is a mother tongue or a second foreign language, as mentioned above, basically it has to go through the stages from short to long, from easy to difficult.


So at the beginning, parents can say the word directly, the word can basically express a clear meaning. For example, when a parent talks about Drink some water, they can pass the water directly to the child without an explanation in Chinese. Body language can express the meaning of these basic words.


The second way is to intersperse a single English word in a Chinese sentence. This way sounds non-standard. But for a child, Chinese is a more comfortable context. Adding one or two unfamiliar words will make the child feel undisturbed at all. If he repeats more frequently, he will remember this English vocabulary and expression. Qian Er's mother also thinks that there is nothing wrong with this method of teaching children English. For English words mixed in sentences like

, it is best to focus on nouns and adjectives. For example, if I want to eat banana, help me with a glass of water. When learning English,

can also speak some idioms.

Babytalk refers to short phrases, or single words. This is also the case when we speak Chinese. The language becomes very immature and even a little stupid according to the child's speech. It is just that people naturally speak out when facing children.


In addition, Babytalk phrases and short sentences, try to choose those that do not require children to answer. The reason why


says Babytalk is actually supported by scientific research. Parents generally slow down their speech when speaking with their children, and their intonation is more exaggerated. The main content of their speech involves the immediate matter or the situation in which they are in. These characteristics are that the mother’s sentence pattern is easier for the child to understand . Adults who speak with children


will automatically adjust the speed, language difficulty, and articulation intelligibility, so that the children can understand and be ready to explain at any time. They are very patient.

linguists call this kind of people "sympathetic interlocutors". It is difficult for adults to find such good interlocutors, so Babytalk also allows children to learn languages ​​faster and easier. The final stage of


is the output of the whole sentence. At this time, the whole sentence is not necessarily a long sentence, but it may be a short sentence phrase, and various methods can be used to encourage children to output.

Let’s review the content of this section:

children can master a language from birth to three or four years old. At the beginning, parents can speak words directly. The word can basically express a clear meaning. The second way is to intersperse individual English words in Chinese sentences. When talks with children, can also use baby talk that children like.


In the next section, I will share more examples of daily communication with parents. That's all for

today's explanation. Parents are welcome to leave a message in the comment area for discussion, and I will answer your questions one by one. I’m Mother Lychee, thank you for listening, see you next time.
