I love how many of us just don't correct them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467218 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 22:48:22 +0000 BadgerMom 2467218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS (20 months) calls blueberries "boobies." He gets so excited when I take them out of the fridge, "BOOBIES! BOOBIES!" I don't correct him 😋 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467195 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 22:23:28 +0000 gingerbebe 2467195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This 4 year old who's family I worked for was really smart for his age and I asked him how his day at pre-K went and he told me:</p> <p>"It was just okay. We were going to play kickball outside but we had tarantula rain showers so we couldn't go outside."</p> <p>Torrential. The child was trying to say torrential rain showers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467157 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 21:56:50 +0000 irene 2467157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS can't say the "R" sound, or really the "our" sound accurately, so "our" would become "ahh". Now when asked how old are you, he said Fahhh (Four), and it confuses people as they thought he said five. Ahh. We are applying to new pre-k for next year and I hope this is not going to be a problem for those "classroom observations".....! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467156 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 21:56:34 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 2467156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD says "smock" like "f*ck". I'm so mature that I crack up every time. DH just shakes his head at me when I ask her to say it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467149 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 21:53:55 +0000 808love 2467149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Funny!! LO used to say BeSkinny for bikini. How appropriate! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467146 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 21:51:26 +0000 babybysurprise 2467146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DD calls Star Wars "dodgers". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467140 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 21:45:37 +0000 jmarionsmith 2467140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3.5 year old calls his penis "peanuts." :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467139 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 21:44:48 +0000 OhCaptain 2467139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>lol! I love these. At almost four my son doesn't have too many any more, but he can not say "music" to save his life. He calls it moovix. He also still says "be-Anna" instead of banana. I can't correct him, once they are gone he really won't be little any more. 😭 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467118 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 21:33:50 +0000 Foodnerd81 2467118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: that's cute!</p> <p>I forgot she also calls the things above your eyes "eye Browns". I don't correct her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467103 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 21:23:53 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2467103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 2 year old's newest one is "rectangle tangle". I don't know why but it is the cutest thing ever to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467097 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 21:17:02 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2467097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: haha! So cute. </p> <p>My son can't really do Rs or Ls yet. He was saying "yucky shirt!" Because he spilled on it. But it sounded like "yucky shit!" He also struggles with Fs. So some how "fart" also sounds like shit! 😂 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467015 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 20:17:37 +0000 Mrs. Cookie 2467015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha!</p> <p>So my little guy is 19 months and he can't really say the S sound yet. But he has mastered the F sound. So sock = f*ck. It's our newest party trick, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/funny-mispronunciations#post-2467014 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 20:13:05 +0000 Foodnerd81 2467014@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What kind of things does your LO mispronounce that lead to really funny comments? </p> <p>C can't really say the L sound yet. We were discussing her new OK to Wake clock and who else has one and she yells out (with no L sound) "So many clocks!" </p> <p>And her mature parents laughed and laughed. :silly: </p>
