Hi Divya, Some kids start talking a little late. If he is speaking few words then its good. You must encourage him to speak more. Just don't follow his commands in actions eg if he wants water or milk then dont give him by just pointing out to these. Ask him what does he want, let him say what he want. Talk to him more and more and when you are talking to him take his inputs in between. Keep on asking the name of the objects, people like what is this, what is that? what's mumma's name, what's papa's name. And don't expect he'll start answering all of these suddenly, have patience. Soon he'll surprise you with his new words and vocabulary :)

Hi Divya, let your kid play with other kids. kids learn more fast with their age group. or you can put him in play school. My daughter is also speaking late. She is now 2. 3. Still she is not speaking a proper sentence. But a major improvement after putting her in the play school.
