Till what age can an infant be called akachan


Till what age can an infant be called akachan. When can we use musuko-chan
till any particular age or till he is able to walk. Please clarify




”Akachan” is ”baby.” The meaning of it has not far from born and depending
mother. If he walk stable or talk, or you talk with one who thinks he is not a
baby, you cannot use it.

On the other hand, you can use ”musuko” even if he is a baby. But, ”-chan” is
not suited. If you talk about other’s son or daughter, you can use ”musuko-
san” or ”musume-san, ” or simply ”oko-san.”
