We have a hard time saying it right because it's so funny. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations/page/2#post-1031881 Tue, 20 Aug 2013 14:52:48 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1031881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can not wait to hear DD mispronouncing words. So far her cutest is saying "ha-yo" and nodding her head down each time like she's taking a bite :) when DH tells her to say "hallå". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-1031878 Tue, 20 Aug 2013 14:52:10 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 1031878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No dirty words here (much to the dismay of DH), but all of these are cracking me up. </p> <p>Milk = No (can't figure out if she's telling me no or asking for milk unless I see her make the "milk" hand sign)<br /> TV = CB<br /> Chair = see<br /> Yay = Weeeeee </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-1031859 Tue, 20 Aug 2013 14:42:59 +0000 littleveesmommy 1031859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swurlygurl: HAHAHAHA omg!!!</p> <p>Ladies this thread is killing me.

He'll say "DD, that's where you were born!" One time they were in the car with family friends and drove past it (not directly by it, she could just see it from afar out the window) and she was mad that they weren't driving by it so she started screaming "I want porn! I want porn! I want poooorrrrnnnnn!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-1031768 Tue, 20 Aug 2013 14:09:59 +0000 Andrea 1031768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: haha. We went through the cock (clock) phase. The "hot" in front of it is just killer. On another note, we got into the car and the radio was advertising "naked music". She said "Mommy!!! They are playing naked music!! Naked music!!" She would not stop yelling it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-1031763 Tue, 20 Aug 2013 14:08:14 +0000 swurlygurl 1031763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hilarious!!</p> <p>This one's about my 2 yo nephew. DH and I were in the basement with him. DH was hiding under a blanket and kept scaring him, so to keep nephew from being scared I told him that DH was being sneaky. Then it turned into a hilarious game. After a while nephew went upstairs to tell his parents and grandparents about all the fun he was having. Except, he couldn't really say sneaky, so he said "Uncle __ and Aunt __ are being nakey downstairs!" We heard him say it so we busted up laughing and had to quickly explain ourselves! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-1031750 Tue, 20 Aug 2013 14:04:18 +0000 sorrycharlie 1031750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: omg..LMBO </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-1031740 Tue, 20 Aug 2013 14:01:11 +0000 autumnlove 1031740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: Awwwh.

When we were at disneyland, he kept pointing to the balloons saying "I want the poopoo one. POOPOO one!!!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-979503 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 19:52:42 +0000 Sweet T 979503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha these are awesome!</p> <p>When DS tries to say "crackers" it sounds like "car keys." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-979494 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 19:50:32 +0000 Torchwood 979494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The preschooler I used to nanny for said "hand betizer" instead of hand sanitizer. And if you said it correctly for any reason, she corrected you that no, it's hand betizer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978992 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 16:35:33 +0000 BoogieBea 978992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the mispronunciations. I copy it sometimes because its just too cute. He used to call 'zucchini' 'bikini'. So he would be very serious and say "mom! I don't like bikinis!"<br /> He also says "Rets go!" instead of "let's go!" so sometimes I say "rets go" too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978969 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 16:23:00 +0000 Honeybee 978969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sloaneandpuffy: oh "baby suit" is so cute! DD calls fruit cocktail "fruit cottontail" and I think it's adorable! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978925 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 16:00:37 +0000 mamimami 978925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went swimming over the weekend and I learned that my son things a bathing suit is a "baby suit." SO FREAKING CUTE. I wanted to die when he told me he wanted to put on his baby suit.</p> <p>My 9.5 month old says cockcockcockcock all the time now, it's like the only thing she babbles. Lovely. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978924 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 15:59:54 +0000 Boheme 978924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am doing the silent shaking laugh at all of these since<br /> LO is sleeping on my chest! Ha!</p> <p>My sister used to call hiccups 'heep-hops' and I've called them that ever since. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978912 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 15:56:02 +0000 justdarling 978912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My niece used to drop the first consonant on most words. She would call a castle an a**hole. This one was tons of fun when we were at Disneyland and she was yelling it over and over when she saw sleeping beauty's castle for the first time. A grass hopper was an a**hopper. She had a few others that were funny, but these two were the best. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978893 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 15:48:46 +0000 littlebittyhouse 978893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: OMG G loves Thomas - this will be him Im sure :/</p> <p>The LO I used to nanny for couldn't make the 'EEE' sound, it came out as 'ahhh'</p> <p>Cookah = cookie</p> <p>DH and I still call cookies 'cookahs' </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978880 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 15:44:00 +0000 BSB 978880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@honeybear: All of these made me laugh silently (I'm at work) but yours almost made me snort! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978867 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 15:37:48 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 978867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha this is great!</p> <p>when my cousin was little she called a noodle a noonle. and she called lip gloss lip gla-noss. and a squirrel was skwill-o. so funny. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978842 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 15:31:36 +0000 autumnlove 978842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: She doesn't like TV yet...so sad!</p> <p>I just looked it up...lol!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978768 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 15:13:33 +0000 cascademom 978768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just bought this book for my LO and probably will for others as a gift for these moments: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/My-Quotable-Kid-Parents-Unforgettable/dp/0811868842/ref=tmm_other_meta_binding_title_0?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1375301542&#038;sr=8-1" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/My-Quotable-Kid-Parents-Unforgettable/dp/0811868842/ref=tmm_other_meta_binding_title_0?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1375301542&#038;sr=8-1</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978703 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 14:57:59 +0000 honeybear 978703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, LO went through a phase of substituting f at the beginning of any word that started with s. (I still feel like this was part of some secret preschooler cabal...) Anyhow when he got his hand stuck in a bench at the playground one day, he yelled "F**K!" That was awesome. I'm so glad he grew out of that. </p> <p>(He wasn't hurt--he just couldn't get loose without help and he totally knew the word he was looking for was "stuck".) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978632 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 14:36:05 +0000 pelikila 978632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>C drops the "s" from words like spoon so we are working on that. The word he has never said completely is giraffe - it has always been Raff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978626 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 14:34:29 +0000 mediagirl 978626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: HA HA HA.

Ask her to say Percy. :) Or just Youtube "kids saying Percy." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978592 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 14:27:49 +0000 Honeybee 978592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: Hehe, my nephew used to say it that way, too. :) So cute!</p> <p>DD used to say "clock" and "flag" without the l's. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mispronunciations#post-978588 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 14:26:20 +0000 mrsjazz 978588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO doesn't says a lot of things wrong, but not as hysterical as some of these. So far nothing sounds like a curse word.</p> <p>My friend's son used to call his "big truck" his "big cock." Too funny. </p>
