The speech sound that is always a single vowel-like sound is a coo. Cooing is an early vocalization made by infants and is characterized by soft, soothing, and single-note sounds that resemble vowel sounds. Phonemes are individual speech sounds that distinguish one word from another, babble refers to the repetitive vocalizations made by infants that do not have meaning, and morphemes are the smallest unit of meaning in language that can change the meaning of a word.
