Telegraphic speech

Explanation:

Telegraphic speech also called the fancy name of the two words. It is similar to the telegram that express the whole meaning of sentence rapidly. When a toddler start to use the telegraphic speech, toddler use words that completely tells about their proper meaning for what he want to do, what he feel, want by expressing these words such as i hungry. The telegraphic speech is the base of development of the language of a toddler.

Thus here Sally is a talkative with a three year old. She described how much she likes chicken nuggets by saying I ate them all up. This is an example of telegraphic speech.
