What language/communication milestones should a child achieve by 3 years?

By 3 years, a child should talk with you in conversation using at least two back-and-forth exchanges, ask 'who,' 'what,' 'where,' or 'why' questions, say what action is happening in a picture or book when asked, say their first name when asked, and talk well enough for others to understand most of the time.
