Baby Talk Grey

Baby talk

Baby talk or child-directed speech (CDS) is a type of speech associated with an older person speaking to an infant, toddler or very young child. CDS is characterized by a "sing song" pattern of intonation that differentiates it from the more monotone style used with other adults, e.g., CDS has higher and wider pitch, slower speech rate and shorter utterances.

Infant

An infant is a very young human being. Baby is an alternative term for infant. The terms may also be used to refer to juvenile beings of other organisms. A newborn is, in mainstream use, an infant who is only hours, days, or weeks old; while in medical contexts, a newborn or neonate is an infant in the first 28 days after birth.

Grey

Grey or gray is an intermediate color between black and white. It is a neutral or achromatic color, meaning that it has no chroma. It is the color of a rain or storm cloud, of ash, and of lead.
