01At what age should a child be forming sentences?
Development varies meaningfully between children, so there's a range rather than a fixed age — general child-development education often mentions simple two-word combinations emerging around age two, with longer sentences developing gradually afterward. This is general information, not a diagnostic marker — see our article on when to consider a speech and language assessment for broader context.
02What's the difference between a speech delay and a language delay?
In general terms, "speech" refers to how sounds and words are physically produced — clarity, pronunciation — while "language" refers to understanding and using words and grammar to communicate meaning. A child can have difficulty with one, the other, or both, and the general distinction matters because it points toward different kinds of support. A qualified speech and language professional can clarify which applies to a specific child.
