does he understand simple commands? n does he use single words like mom, dad, no, yes etc? children this age are learning new words every day but their understanding is way more. do mention this to your pediatrician n consult a speech therapist to rule out any delays.

boys have delayed developmental mile stones when compared to girls. there cud be a lot of reasons why they have not started speaking yet. one is that they cud be confused if they hear multipe languages. try speaking to him in one language (mother tongue wud be preferable). slow down when u speak to him so that he is able to hear the words correctly. the best kind of encouragement is to let ur child play with other children .they learn quickly from them. i personally dont think 2 years is an age to worry about. my son started speaking words by himself when he was 2 and a half. it can vary with each child.
