What is articulation? [Learn about articulation in speech and which sounds kids learn to say first]

In this video you’ll learn all about articulation in speech. The definition of articulation is the movement of parts together. Articulation in speech refers to how sounds are formed in the mouth or the movement of all the parts of your mouth and airway together to make sounds and pronounce different words. Speech requires coordination between the lips, teeth, tongue, jaw, palate (roof of your mouth), cheeks, and vocal cords.
While there are only 26 written letters, there are actually about 44 different sounds in English, which means your toddler has a lot to learn! We’ll explore how some different sounds are made and how toddlers learn to articulate clearly.

I though Ma would definitely be one of the earliest speech sounds. That sound is used for mother in norwegian (mamma), tamil (amma) and many other languages. I thought that was intentional

[@toddlertalk]

Hi, The "M" sound is one of the earliest consonant sounds that toddlers learn. The "Ah" vowel sound is also learned early on. Both of these sounds are relatively easier for babies and toddlers to copy because they can see what we're doing with our mouths and try to copy these sounds. You can check out this link to learn more about when babies and toddlers usually learn different consonant sounds in English (it will be somewhat different for different languages) - toddlertalk.com/blog/what-is-an-articulation-disorder
