25 months limited speech

So my little girl is 25 months and has lots of words and for a few months now she has started to string 2/3 words together to make a sentence , especially if prompted . More often than not she uses single words to make requests . I am aware this is not normal but she can ask questions like “ where’s daddy “ what happened ? Whats that sound ? And she can answer those questions like if I ask where’s daddy ? She replies “ kitchen “ what color is dolly ? She says the correct color . What’s mommy doing ? She always replies correctly. Who’s that ? In pictures etc . She finishes sentences like I say “ we drive … and she says a car
My concern is that she uses single words when making a request .
She is social and engages with both people and kids her age by playing with the ball or sharing toys at the beach .
When speaking fast she uses gibberish and that’s a sign of speech delay .
