Speech delay or autism

2022-07-11 08:24:03
My 4 year old can't talk in sentences but can name objects. She understands English and her mother tongue too. She can follow instructions and can do activities. But she seems not interested in other kids. But sometimes she plays with kids younger than herself. She seems normal but she keeps repeating nursery rhymes even while walking in road. Is she autistic
