:::Any dictionary. Child = anyone under 18. Directed = to someone. Speech = verbally. Child-directed speech, therefore, is any adult talking to anyone under 18. [[Special:Contributions/199.125.109.102|199.125.109.102]] ([[User talk:199.125.109.102|talk]]) 04:27, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
::::Sorry, but I find this to be nonsense. This is a scientific topic, what matters is how [[WP:Reliable sources]] (and I added a few just at the beginning of the article, in case anyone missed them) use the term, now how a dictionary defines the single constituents of the terms - building from that would be obvious [[WP:Original research]]. This is basically a [[compound word]], and its meaning isn't necessarily the sum of the meanings of its constituents. --[[User:LjL|LjL]] ([[User talk:LjL|talk]]) 12:49, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
:::::A more accurate term, if you want to stick with 10 cent words, is "infant-directed speech". The common term, however, is baby talk. [[Special:Contributions/199.125.109.102|199.125.109.102]] ([[User talk:199.125.109.102|talk]]) 14:01, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
*'''Move''' to [[Baby talk]], the [[WP:UCN|common name]], and move the new dab to [[Baby talk (disambiguation)]]. Having seperate stubs as mentioned earlier would represent a [[Wikipedia:Content fork|content fork]]. [[User:Dekimasu|Dekimasu]]<small>[[User talk:Dekimasu|よ!]]</small> 05:51, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
*:Note to anyone reading: this proposal is the same as the situation that we had had from 2004 up until about a month ago. -- ''<B>[[User:Soap|Soap]]</B>'' <sup>[[User talk:Soap|Talk]]</sup>/<sub>[[Special:Contributions/Soap|Contributions]]</sub> 13:14, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
