1. Motherese, also known as parentese, is a special way of speaking used by parents when talking to infants and young children. It uses an exaggerated melodic tone, stretched out vowels, and clear pronunciation to encourage babies to pay attention and respond through babbling.
2. Unlike "baby talk" which uses nonsense sounds and gibberish, motherese uses real words with proper grammar. Speaking to babies using full words and sentences helps develop their communication skills at an early age.
3. Experts recommend using motherese when interacting with babies to provide clear language models and encourage social interaction through eye contact and face-to-face conversation. Even if babies cannot respond,

Children's ability to think and learn for themselves is enhanced by good
communication abilities. When we converse to a newborn, we commonly utilize parentese. The rhythmic and melodious noises we make encourage the youngster to pay attention and respond by babbling. We are also highlighting the need of providing youngsters with clear models of the sounds that make up words. Making eye contact and speaking face-to-face with a newborn improves them social interaction skills. Parentese, in essence, illustrates many essential aspects of language use. It's also a technique for babies to communicate and learn language. Motherese/Parentese is not the same as what is commonly referred to as "baby talk" which is a jumble of goofy sounds and gibberish phrases. It is instead fully grammatical speech, with real words, stretched vowels, and exaggerated voice tones. My parents used to tell me how easy it was for me to learn to speak my mother tongue when I was only two and a half years old. They claimed that whenever they spoke to me, they never used "baby talk," but instead spoke in a conversational manner. As a result, my communication skills develop early. It is better to talk babies using proper grammar and real words. For example say "Do you want to drink water?" instead of "Mamam" (gibberish word for water). Child will also learn to communicate by observing how you interact with others. If you speak positively to others, your child will learn to do the same. Take for example, during mealtimes, you can such as 'What was good about your day today?' Even if the infant is unable to respond, he or she understands.
