- word must be used consistently and extend beyond the original context
word must be produced with clear purpose/intention

- there is a reason they are saying what they are
the word must approximate the adult pronunciation
phonetically consistent forms (PCFs/protowords do NOT meet that criteria)
word must be used consistently and extend beyond the original context
says the word dog to describe more than just their pet dog but other dogs they see out of the houose, and dog plushies
describe protowords
PHONETICALLY CONSISTENT FORMS-> protowords
- does not match the adult pronunciation, but it IS consistent
- has meaning for the child
- has the same characteristics as babbling
- drops out as children acquire true words
PCFs
ex. if the child says the word “dubada” for strawberry, and consistently calls them that in various contexts (but it doesn’t sound like the adult pronunciation of the target word)
underextensions
when children use a word in fewer contexts than they should
- using dog to refer to only pugs
