Question

Describe hellen efforts of uttering her initial word as a child

Answer 1

Helen was a very talented and promising girls; she showed many signs of an eager, self-asserting disposition. Everything that she saw other people do she imitated. At six months she could say "How d'ye," and one day she attracted every one's attention by saying "Tea, tea, tea" quite plainly. Even after her illness she remembered one of the words she had learned in these early months. It was the word "water," and she continued to make some sound for that word after all other speech was lost.
