I think they can understand simple everyday words first then they understand more and more.If a child keeps hearing 'milk' or 'juice' and the bottle/beaker passed to them, I think they understand.Also perhaps 'Mummy' / 'Daddy' etc.To speak, they need to know how to say the letters and words, which I think is a bit harder.

yes. That is how they know to call their mother's "mommy' and father's "daddy" and that a dog is called a dog, etc. We repeat things to them and eventually they understand it and finally they are able to make actual words and can then identify what they have learned.

My kids could. They could follow simple instructions long before they could speak.

Yes, that is also true when learning a foreign language, comprehension comes before expression. It is logical. You HAVE to know what to say before you can say it.
