PARENTS WILL BE ASKED TO COMPLETE THE CDI WORD LIST IN EITHER ENGLISH OR SPANISH (BASED ON PRIMARY HOME LANGUAGE) USING THE RELEVANT AGE FORM: LEVEL I (8-18 MONTHS); LEVEL II (16-30 MONTHS); OR LEVEL III (30-37 MONTHS). THESE AGE-BASED VOCABULARY LISTS INCLUDE APPROXIMATELY 100 WORDS EACH AND ARE APPENDED AT THE END OF THIS DOCUMENT.

B1. Below is a list of typical words in young children’s vocabularies. We are interested specifically in the words your child understands or says in English.

For words your child does not yet understand, mark the first column (does not understand). For words your child understands but does not yet say on his/her own, mark the second column (understands). For words your child understands and also says on his/her own, mark the third column (understands and says). If your child uses a different pronunciation of a word or another word with the same meaning (for example, “raffe” for “giraffe” or “nana” for “grandma”) mark the word anyway. For each item, please mark only one response.

Remember, this is a “catalogue” of words that are used by many different children. Don’t worry if your child knows only a few right now.
