AComplete sentences
BTwo-word phrases
CA large vocabulary
DNo real words yet
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. No real words yet
1. Babbling is vocal experimentation with articulate sounds.
2. During it the infant does not yet produce any recognisable words.
3. Sentences, phrases and a large vocabulary come later.
**Why not the others:** Complete sentences, two-word phrases and a large vocabulary belong to later stages.
