-its a trauma response/coping mechanism
-its completely different from ddlg/ddlb/mdlg/mdlb!!!!
-usually ranges from 9 months old-9 years old
-we tend to regress to the age we experienced the most trauma
-trans littles don't 'go back' to being their assigned gender at birth
-some of us that are younger tend to talk like we're that age, this may mean changes pronunciation, going back to our native language, using child like terms, using incorrect grammar, ect.
Key for little language:
T = k ex: otay!
R/l = w ex: I wittwe/youwe wight
Th = d ex: dats good!
Honestly just listen, ask how they'd prefer to be treated, we all have different needs/wants
Hope this helps!! Lmk if you have any questionssss
