She started actual words around 15 months (almost 10 words), and would answer basic open-ended questions (ie. what do you want for dinner? Pasta) around 17 months.
She's definitely fast on the speaking thing, but it's both a gift and a curse. It's nice because we can communicate well, etc., but she also says the meanest things with intricate grammar.
Like she'd be singing a song in the car, and would get a word wrong, and my wife would sing it correctly. And she'd be like "mommy don't help, I can do it. Don't do ANYTHING." So then I'd be like 'hey, don't say things like that to your mom, you're making her sad' and she'd answer "mommy's not sad, i love her very much!"
She also started using English words she learns at daycare with Korean we speak at home...I try to keep them separate, but it's impossible to keep the two languages completely segregated.
