Hi....looks like he's having moderate language delay.
Suggestions -
1. He needs hearing evaluation.
2. We need to check if he has Tongue tie.
3. If he's watching TV or video games or tablet more than 1 hour per day, it needs to be restricted.
4. Encourage him to sing rhymes starting from words by continuous positive stimulation.
5. GE needs complete evaluation by a developmental pediatrician.
