I have twin two year olds and they seem to talk to each other in a secret language! They can speak regular english just fine but they like to talk to each other this way. Do most twins do this? BTW they are not identical, they are fraternal boy/girl

YES, YES, YES!!!! I have had the absolute pleasure & joy to watch my 4yr old identical granddaughters grow up. One will start a sentence - the other one will finish it. There are times when one will go get something, hand it to the other one (who then says thank you) and NOBODY said a word before that. If I would not have seen that one, I would not have believed it. One girl spoke (a little) about 18 months, but the other one just grunted -- the first one KNEW exactly what she wanted and then she would go and ask for it. It becomes stronger the older they get -- it is so fasinating to watch them.

I have 4 year old twins that are fraternal but both boys and they talked in their own language for a long time and still sometimes they talk like that.

My nephews are identical boy 3 years olds, and my brother's girlfriend is a 19 year old fraternal. The boys have their own language and the older girls say they have too. They also say the whole "I know when something's wrong with the other one" is true too. You just get a feeling.

They showed this on Law And Order once. 14-year-old twins talked in a secret language while being interrogated by a detective who said his own twin 10-year-olds had a secret language too. So it looks pretty real to me!

I am an identical twin, and my sister and i had our own language. We didnt start talking normal until we were 4 years old. The doctor said that was normal in twins its called "twin talk".

Some twins do. But that doesn't slow their development or English or anything. It is usually identical twins. Sometimes siblings who aren't twins do as well but that is very rare.

I am a triplet, I am a female with two brothers. I am in my thirties. To this day I can read the two of them like a book. Our ideas are the same. They don't need to complete a sentence for me to understand what they're getting at. My one brother that is a minute younger than I am, for some reason when he is upset I feel it. I have never shared that with him. I can't explain it.
