Discussion
Between _____ months of age, most children begin to combine words into short sentences while speaking.
Answer: B
The age range is 18 to 24 months.
Children usually say their first words around 12 months. Between about 18 and 24 months, after a vocabulary spurt, they begin to combine words into two-word utterances such as 'more milk' or 'daddy go'. This telegraphic speech is the first step towards sentences.
At 12-18 months most children are still in the one-word (holophrastic) stage. By 24-36 months they are already producing longer, more grammatical sentences, so the start of word combinations is placed earlier.
