Young children (about 18-24 months) produce two-word utterances that have their own structure, though it is different from that of adult speech. Examples: # Daddy gone. # Allgonesticky. Bold indicates stress in speech. Children are able to use one clause utterances that conform to adult grammar by age 4-5. Handling complex sentences properly may have to wait till much later. Many kids have problems with passive constructions until about age 9+. Some people never learn to handle really complex sentences grammatically, either in speech or in writing. (It's not something that most schools in the English-speaking countries bother with, and one way of 'spotting' plagiarized undergraduate (and even MA) assignments is to look for correct grammar.

Who developed the world's first standardized intelligence test?
Alfred Binet and Theodore Simon created the first standardized intelligence test in 1916. Francis Galton made the first attempt to create such a test before them, but was unsuccessful in creating a test because he could find no correlation between physical development and mental development. Binet and Simon created a test that would require participants to give answers that would relate to their "mental age", meaning that the more advanced the question, the more likely an older participant would be able to answer correctly. This mental age reflected the mental ability of a child. If a child had a higher mental age than his/her chronological age, (for example, an 11 year old scores a mental age of 13) then the child was considered gifted or mentally advanced. If a child had a lower mental score than his/her chronological age, (for example, an 11 year old scores a mental age of 10) then the child was seen as underdeveloped or mentally retarded.
