it is normal for boys, and children in bilingual environments, to develop speech more slowly. This is not a concern. IT is normal. There is also a wide range of what is normal. At three years old I would still see no need to be concerned.
Just keep exposing him to language as much as possible - talk to him constantly - in both languages, explaining what you're doing and things around you all. Encourage him to express himself to you and give him plenty of time to answer / respond. Things should change rapidly in the next year as he grows.
If he gets to 4 without making progress then maybe get him assessed, but likely he is just taking everything in and in time it will all come out again as it should.
