Now that I've been paying attention I do think that I say more than I think I do. Just in a minute or two I said like 100 words.
I read a book about so-called "primitive" cultures and most of them don't talk to babies at all. The babies learn from the environment and hearing language, just like skrimpy said.!!! Questions?? Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

That is interesting! I wonder how many words I speak in a day. I reckon it is close.

Does the word "no" count? I reckon I say that 30000 times a day to my 2 yo!

Yep, this is me! Stop it and Don't do that are my top 2. And don't forget Leave each other ALONE. Hands to yourself. Pick that up.
I'm the quiet type too so I know I don't say that many words per day. I really like the "wordometor" idea! Some people could use that to excercise good talking habits! Quiet is a good thing!

what one of my friends said is it's not talking to them but they should hear that many words in conversation (and not on TV) so hearing adult conversations is good it teaches them how language is put together.
So happy for you Treens, congratulations Sent from my SM-A225F using Tapatalk
