A riddle, what is this? You soak in it, splash around and play in it with a rubber ducky. You can also drink from it, preferrably milk, or soymilk. It also flies through the air going twiet twiet twiet. And finally, its the place one uses as a toilet? <\/p>\n
It’s a Badi. That’s what it sounds like to us at least. “Badi” is german babytalk for a bath. “Botti” is a bottle. “Boadi” is a birdie, most likely followed by twiet twiet. And “Potty” is a very urgent matter, and better not misunderstood and discussed for a long time (yes Leilani finally reports having to pee too!! Sometimes). Unfortunately I’m not a good role model for keeping “P” and “B” appart, or “T” and “D”, or “V” and “W” and the “R” is swallowed into an “A” like sound. <\/p>\n
Beer and Bear is another one. I’m actually not that happy she says beer at all, but it sure is funny. She saw someone drinking from a beer like bottle at the airport and went “BEEEER!!!” <\/p>\n
Also “Wischi” (wipe one’s mouth, german babytalk) and “Fishi” are hard to tell appart by sound, but mostly the context makes it clear.<\/p>\n
Other recent words are “Buch” (german book) “Sitzi” (german sit), “Momo” (monkey), “Apple” (any remotely round fruit) “Hei-Hei” (german Night-night), “Ducky” “Jesus”, “Sus” (shoes), “leaf”, “Apa” (open), “Moon” and her new favorite “No”. There are also a few new animals sounds, she does the elephant better than I do, and says Mooo for the cow, <\/p>\n
It seems she tacks on an “i” at the end of a lot of words, which I heard a lot of german speaking babies do, and I wonder if I inadvertantly encourage this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
