The aim of this paper is to find out whether there is a connection between babbling and the production of first words. To answer this question, the data from Clark 2016 and Contreras/Saporta 2013 will be analysed. First, the theoretical background is explained, then the data analysis is presented. This is followed by a discussion and the work is concluded with a conclusion.
Language is considered an important means of communication that allows people to share their thoughts, feelings and sensations. Through language it is also possible to communicate with people from other cultures using different languages. Therefore, it is important that children have access to language at an early age to be able to communicate. Language competence is not present from the beginning but is acquired during life. Development takes place in a process that evolves. From birth, children produce sounds that develop into words as they become older.
