If he is 2.5 years old then he supposed to speak (at least) in three word sentences. I will suggest you to consult with speech language pathologist so he can check present 'language age' of your child. Most of the time due to lack of language stimulation at home, child may have delayed speech milestone but it is better to take experts advice.
