I know dogs.
For a baby talk, is it ok to say, "I know dogs"--whatever that means to a baby?
Thank you.
Thank you.

"I know dogs" is grammatically correct English, but it would not be a common thing to say. In what context are you intending to use it? I don't understand what connection there is with baby talk or babies.

Thank you, GPY.
I know it seems a little strange. My baby is talking this sentence, and I know what he means, but I couldn't go for a little more complicated sentence like "I know what are dogs", which is, I think what usually people would say for what he means--am I correct?. So, do you think the original sentence works now?

It seems to me, onizo, that you are asking us if a certain construction produced by your baby is acceptable. If that is so, then relax, for heaven's sake. Any speech sounds produced by a baby should be a delight to its parents.
