You are at a day care centre and you hear three 12-month-old babies babbling, each baby from a different racial/ethnic background (Asian, Hispanic, and Caucasian). Which statement should best describe the babbling of each of these infants?


▸ It will sound very similar, because maturation is the major determinant of language acquisition during the first year.

▸ It will consist mainly of two-word phrases (telegraphic speech).

▸ It will consist mainly of vowel sounds, because consonant sounds don't usually emerge until 14 months of age.

▸ It will sound very different, with each child's babbles sounding quite similar to the parents' native language.
