How many words should a 15-month-old baby speak?

A 15-month-old baby is expected to speak an average of 3 to 10 words. These words may be single-syllable, not perfectly pronounced, but meaningful sounds — like "mama," "daddy," "water," or "milk." They understand far more than they speak (receptive language develops faster than expressive language). The most important sign at 15 months is not the number of words but whether the baby turns when hearing their name or follows simple instructions like "get the toy" or "wave bye-bye."
