Pediatrics Assignment Practice Exam

By around 12 months, which language milestone is expected?

Says 1–2 meaningful words and responds to name Says several words and points to body parts Babbles but does not respond to name Uses complete sentences

Correct Answer:

Says 1–2 meaningful words and responds to name

Explanation:

By around one year, language development typically includes saying one or two meaningful words and responding to their name. This shows the transition from initial babbling to first expressive words, while also demonstrating receptive language by recognizing their own name, a key social-communication cue. The other scenarios describe skills that usually appear later: having several words and pointing to body parts develops in the second year or later; babbling without responding to name fits earlier infancy; and using complete sentences is something expected well after the first year.
