Yeah, this one is above our pay grade here. Sometimes speech delays are innocuous (individuals will learn language when they are ready, but if you try to force it early it does not work at all).
Not as severe an example, but all of my siblings and I learned to read (basic phonics) around age 4, 4 and a half. One of my siblings did not learn to read until they were five and a half. Said sibling is also a godsdamned genius so i too generally feel it’s worth seeing a pediatrician over stuff like this.
He seems like he wants to talk. Just cant form the sounds. I talked to a friend that has kids and she wasnt even phased when i asked her. I guess it’s normal. I was curious.
How familiar is the child with you? A common coping mechanism for a child who is shy is revert to behaving younger. Non verbally, or using baby words. When they’re with people they’re comfortable with a 2 year old will never shut up.
Are 2 year olds supposed to talk at all? My neighbor’s can only say ma da and augrh
Mama/dada is around 1, they should be forming short phrases at 2.
May want to recommend the neighbors tune into Ms. Rachel on YouTube.
Or maybe even to consult the pediatrician.

I think he’s fine. I was just curious. I don’t have kids so i have no idea when they learn things.
