Apartment Life: Obligatory Hate/Love Topic

<< < (61/67) > >>

Lorelei:
"Huggle"?!

I think I just got DIABEETUS.

Emma:
Haha! You'd hate it in my house then, we call it 'hug-wug'  :D That's what my (not quite 2) daughter calls it.

I like the toddler hug, it is so sweet.

Inge:
Just what is it that drives small children to experiment by adding a rhyming suffix to words?  Is it because without realising we're doing first, saying things like beddy-weddy time and stuff?

Emma:
I think it is just experimenting while learning to talk. Her favourite word at the moment is narna-barna. (banana)

talysman:
Yes to both. Language Log had a post recently on toddler illeism that talked a little bit about children copying parents and experimentation.
