I could swear that my daughter made sentences when she was a little more or a little less than a year old. One was "does it?" and the other was a four sentence observation. It was barely words she used though, but being her mom I can understand these word mumbles better than others. Basically, I was probably the only one who could understand her at this age (maybe her dad too). Also, her language didn't directly build off of these advanced sentences. The language building went through a sort of reconstruction as she entered the babbling stage and rebuilt from scratch.
Therefore I don't think the 10 month old is actually using language to speak, but a more primitive form of communication - understanding.
Is it normal for a baby to start talking at the age of 10 months?
