No he should speak sentence at this age, just lessen screen time of child, lets him play with other kids, notice if child has any other behavioural issues like repeating words, less eye contact, circling
Just visit ent also for tongue tie and hearing assessment
If all things normal then consult physically
Next Steps
Make him read and play with other kids might help
