Answer: Telegraphic speech

Step-by-step explanation:

Children's first sentences can be described as a two-word stage, Telegraphic speech because this speech is using two words to describe some ideas.

  • For example, if the children are saying ''Dog drink water'', he or she is trying to say ''Dog is drinking water''.

Those are the first kinds of sentences that children are speaking and before that, they are using holophrases and babbling. Telegraphic sentences can be combined with five words or less.
