Eleven-month-old babies gradually prepare to say one or two words. They learn easy words such as babam, mamma, dede and memme from those around them and say them by imitation. At this age, apart from genetics, the environmental and social setting is the most influential factor in speech and intellectual development.
We should recognize the eleven-month-old baby as an individual, behave in a way suited to their personality and provide plenty of verbal and behavioral stimulation. We should talk to the baby, but what we say should be real. Instead of saying meaningless things unrelated to reality because the baby supposedly cannot understand, we should talk through what we do in everyday life. The more verbal stimulation we provide, the faster the baby will speak; this will also contribute to intellectual development.
You can speak more than one language with a baby. If family members speak different languages, using those languages naturally in everyday life is not confusing for the baby. From these months onward, the baby can begin learning them like a native language.
