Sounds like regression. I’d have his ears checked and keep an eye on him to see if he regresses in other areas.

This. And possibly pain from molars. Please run it by a doctor.

Is he learning how to walk right now?

He's been walking for a couple of months.
He has been touching his ears a lot which I thought was related to the teething. But his receptive language seems fine so I doubt he has any hearing problems.
If it is a regression, what could that mean? What can you do about it?
I'm going to take him to get his ears checked and talk this over with a doctor but I always like to gather as much information as I can first. Sometimes there are things you don't think to ask until after.

I think this is normal. my daughter recently did the same thing it’s when she learned how to point I think she just got a little lazy and stop talking after a few weeks though she’s talking tons. I just stopped responding to the points and giving the words instead.

This. My son's speech regressed considerably and that's when he started walking (he was teething as well) only after walking was established did his speech continue to pick up speed

That's encouraging to hear. It's why I'm not automatically assuming regression, just paying attention - like maybe he's taking a break from all the language development and trying something new. But I've been trying to prompt words instead of responding to the kvetches and he doesn't seem to be responding to that so far.
I did get some requests for water today, and a horse toy said neigh. So bh there's still something here. Just not as much as I'm used to, and a lot of eh in between

So interesting, I did not know that was a thing. I wonder if it applies to other developmental activities because my baby already walks but who knows what's cooking next

Often regressions can be related to the body putting a out of energy and focus on a new skill/adjustment so they"drop other balls" while getting into things

Maybe he has an ear infection and from pain can't focus on formulating words?
I'm thinking a long those lines because you said he starts crying when your try prompting him.
Perhaps something is bothering him?
Good luck!
