Abstract: In contemporary linguistics, there has been a notable shift towards understanding the human element within
language studies, reflecting an anthropocentric approach. This shift has led to a growing fascination with
language, speech, and the intricacies of communication. Consequently, linguistic research has honed in on
the dynamics of live communication, recognising the multifaceted elements that shape interactions. The
totality of the communicative experience, including the context, familiarity between speakers, behavioural
nuances, and non-verbal cues, all play pivotal roles in defining the overarching objectives of communication.
This evolving focus underscores the significance of considering human factors in linguistic analyses,
highlighting the dynamic interplay between language and human interaction.
1 INTRODUCTION
At the tender age of two years and five months,
children begin to exhibit a remarkable curiosity about
the world around them, employing various methods
to expand their vocabulary and comprehend their
surroundings. Through repetitive naming of people
and objects in their environment, such as toys and
familial relations, they strive to grasp the linguistic
nuances of their reality. For instance, a child may
adamantly demand his mother to remove her
headscarf, displaying a preference for familiarity and
consistency in his interactions.
Moreover, children of this age are incessantly
inquisitive, seeking answers to the myriad questions
that arise in their minds. They yearn to comprehend
the complexities of everyday life, from the
whereabouts of family members to the reasons behind
unforeseen events. This innate curiosity is poignantly
captured in children's literature, where characters like
Davronboy skilfully articulate their queries,
prompting insightful reflections on the nature of
human curiosity and the pursuit of knowledge.
2 DISCUSSIONS
In the realm of speech communication, the interaction
between the speaker and the listener holds paramount
importance, encompassing various forms such as
individual, collective, and public addresses. Y.A.
Zemskaya introduces the notion of a quasi-addressee
or auto-addressee, highlighting their role in informal
communication within children's speech, though
seldom observed in typical speech contexts. This
quasi-dialogical speech often emerges during
children's staged games, which serve as a pivotal
activity in their cognitive development. As D.B.
Elkonin elucidates, the primary impetus behind a
child's engagement in play is the emulation of adult
life, albeit within the confines of their imaginative
realm.
During play, children navigate social roles and
relationships, gradually discerning their place in the
adult world. Quasi-dialogical speech unfolds as
children enact scenarios, directing speech towards
themselves as both the speaker and the listener. V.V.
Bogdanov underscores the human capacity to invent
communicative counterparts in the absence of real
interlocutors, a phenomenon vividly illustrated in
children's play. Through such imaginative play,
children not only expand their linguistic abilities but
also cultivate social understanding and moral

discernment, laying the groundwork for their ethical
development into adolescence and beyond.
3 CONCLUSION
In the concluding stages of preschool development,
children exhibit a growing capacity to align their
actions with the interests of others, underscoring the
influential role of adult role models in shaping their
moral character. As children mature, they
increasingly internalize the behaviours and values
demonstrated by those they admire, highlighting the
profound impact of social models on moral
development during this critical period.
Moreover, the preschool years mark a pivotal
stage wherein children navigate their social
environment, consolidating their understanding of
their own age group and their place within society.
While the formation of concepts related to age is
nearing completion, children continue to grapple with
understanding the complex dynamics of their social
milieu. Furthermore, the development of gender roles
unfolds along a spectrum, reflecting the diverse range
of influences that shape a child's conception of gender
identity. These insights underscore the multifaceted
nature of preschool development, wherein social,
cognitive, and moral dimensions intertwine to shape
the emerging individual.
