I deal with that all the time as well. I'd try to play along but I just don't think I could pass myself off as "mommy"!Originally Posted by bubble.tea
- hmmm what else. Oh yeah., XX Just LOVES to call me Mommy at times., and I have to look her square in the face and say...AHEM
.
Let's see, our one child used to enjoy going to the gee-store (grocery store). Ask our other child how they are doing and it is always a straight, well pronounced but abrupt "good", nothing more, nothing less. Another one is the ow-breye (instead of eyebrow) which is always amusing so why correct it?
To tell you the turth, I have either forgotten or don't notice the mispronounciations anymore. Like most parents, I understand what they are saying, but most others don't.

**Sound-Off** Your Kids' mispronounciations and special wordings
Well, those of you who know my food thread know we like our Milk-Shakes, and Home made Iced Cappuccino's.
- Well XX, never calls it but Apple-Chino's...which isn't so bad. It USED TO BE Extra-Chino hehe. Daaaad., Eh-You-gonna make us Extra-Chino tonight?.
- Oh yeah that's another one. For some reason she can't figure out that it's "Can you...." as in Can you help me tie my shoes. Instead she says "Eh you...." hehe. So adorable. For lack of a better spelling, the phonetics are 100% 'Eh' in nature-weird as we don't use it that much...I think
. - XY, our younger, has progressed from Dada., to Dad-eeeeeee but the fun one is-instead of MoMieeeee...it's Mo-Nieeeeeee lmao. Yep he says Money!!!! instead of mommy.
- hmmm what else. Oh yeah., XX Just LOVES to call me Mommy at times., and I have to look her square in the face and say...AHEM .
I'll think of more later today

My son has very good reading skill for a 6 yr old and often gets very difficult words correct on the first try.
We are still working on:
edgery = energy
yo-grit = yogurt
"I have lots of edgery, I just ate a yo-grit" Reply With Quote

Mine doesn't talk yet, but I just had to chime in with a...
"AWSOME THREAD!!!"_______________
I guess there's nothing wrong with what you say, but don't sell me 'there can't be better ways.' Tell the captain 'this boat's not safe, we're drowning', turns out he's the one making waves. Reply With Quote

My daughter would say "lellow" or "yeyyow", but never "yellow". One day it was so frustrating (and funny), that I thought she was doing it on purpose!
My son used to refer to "nipples" as "nickels". That one never got old! Reply With Quote

I can think of 2 right off the top of my head.
All 3 of my kids (ages 8,6,4) still call a chicken drumstick, "chicken on a handle". We go to Swiss Chalet and they order this from the waitress, who looks at us funny.
Another one is when my oldest was about 4 we had to stop at the liquor store and he thought we were going to the licorice store. He thought he was getting licorice. He still calls it that Reply With Quote

Made a mental note of another one.
XY 3.5 says I-cauwz or...D-cauwz instead of 'because'

A one time incident that crosses my mind....
When my now 6yr old was barely into the Mama/Dada stage of learning to talk he was sitting in his highchair for supper one day and we gave him his food and a fork.
At which point he took a few bites and started saying "spa" over and over and shaking his fork at us. I couldn't for the life of me figure out what he wanted. He got really frustrated and slapped the fork down, slapped the high chair and said
"fork.....spa" "fork......spa"
He wanted a spoon. Stupid daddy
And he still calls KFC "chicken cave" (a variation of chicken KFC I guess) Reply With Quote
