My 2 year old had problems saying some words that start with ‘D.’ Instead of 'D' she says 'G.' The words she has trouble with are DOG, DUCK, DINGLE, DARK, DOCK, and DECK.
Like instead of DOG, it’s GOG, and instead of DUCK it’s GUCK. I can get her to say the 'D' sound before the word, but then she replaces it with a 'G' sound.
Like I will say, "D(uh) D(uh) DOGGIE" and she will repeat back "D(uh) D(uh) GOGGIE." (the D's being the D sound as in 'DUH' not 'DEE')
But she had no problem saying the 'D' sound in some other words, like DADDY, DOES, DANGER, DARING, DANCE, DUDE, DENT, DOCTOR, DEDUCTION and DYING.
It’s not a big deal, and I know she will grow out of it, but I am just curious.
