Answer to Question 1

Parents of infants often believe their children understand the words they say to them, and early research on the matter seemed to confirm this. However, well-controlled studies more recently have separated out the degree to which infants are responding to the actual words their parents say and the nonverbal cues their parents are giving in communications. When parents are asked to communicate to their infants while they (the parents) are out of sight from the infant, 11-month-old infants do not generally seem to understand the objects to which their parents' voices refer. On the other hand, 13-month-old infants given the same task do seem to understand the words their parents are using.
