Banana and Nana are both 'nana'- so we need to do some interpretation.

So when we would ask her if she wanted milk and she said "no", we has to figure out if she was saying milk or no milk. @Arden: DD1 had the same word for water! skibobrown on "Decoding your child's cryptic speech!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decoding-your-childs-cryptic-speech#post-1898089 Sat, 11 Oct 2014 21:11:36 +0000 skibobrown 1898089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I usually understand what my daughter is saying, but typically at least once per day she'll say something that I just don't get. Her response is usually to get really made at me for not understanding her. This morning she kept saying something like "I want to cah the gah". She got mad that I didn't get what she was saying, so I asked her to show me. Apparently she wanted to "color the girl" i.e. the picture of Dora the Explorer on her easel.

My 2yo wanted to know where her "reeling" was last night. After much frustration, we discovered that she meant fishing rod.

We finally figured out that when Tor was saying "Peetee" he was actually trying to say tree. I have no idea why he says it that way but we did some flash cards and he called every tree "Peetee". Perhaps because we said some trees were pretty? "Oger" is yogurt and "Tee" is trick or treat. Now I have to figure out what "Oodoo" means. Still stumped on that one.

She may have watched the "Elmo's Song" video one too many times... lamariniere on "Decoding your child's cryptic speech!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decoding-your-childs-cryptic-speech#post-1897589 Sat, 11 Oct 2014 03:32:58 +0000 lamariniere 1897589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My 10 month old has started to say what sounds like "mama" every time she wants more food!

He speaks well for the most part, but it was so funny when I figured out why kept saying "daddy booboo". lol Sophs Mama on "Decoding your child's cryptic speech!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decoding-your-childs-cryptic-speech#post-1897569 Sat, 11 Oct 2014 00:50:05 +0000 Sophs Mama 1897569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Apparently "bacca" means ipad and "nee" means orange. Weird kids.

Finally, I figured out that bunny=banana. mrbee on "Decoding your child's cryptic speech!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decoding-your-childs-cryptic-speech#post-1897414 Fri, 10 Oct 2014 20:36:05 +0000 mrbee 1897414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My daughter kept telling me, "My butt hurts!" I thought she had to poop... but it turned out, she was just trying to tell me that she had a diaper wedgie. I finally figured it out, and felt like I had translated the Rosetta Stone! Have you decoded anything your child was trying to say lately?
