what you mean by a meaningful utterance. Must it be understood by another to be meaningful? Caregivers can often understand the sounds of infants and toddlers that to others are meaningless sounds. In the video Burning ghost linked to the heartbeat vocalization “gaga” over time becomes water. Was the child saying water all along? It is also interesting to note that the word was used with much greater frequency in the kitchen. This suggests that it is not so much a matter of social situation but something more basic.
Nevertheless, possession of wordy means of language is crucial for a child's development, there is a huge gap between non-verbal kids and able to speak ones.
Verbal language facilitates a child with abilities to think, it further develops her attention, her memory, and his will, her ability to be independent of her instincts and immediate needs. And, all these are the components of composing a meaningful utterance. In principle, acquiring language is possible just in a social situation.
