whats the funniest childhood mispronouncement you've ever heard?

Question

With my two yongest when they first strated trying to say "truck" it came out with a f in front instead of a tr. no kidding.
we all thought it was very funny.

oh and my youngest calls anything that is flat a cooookieeee. a hambuger, a porkchop, a pancake, a waffle, anything flat and simi round.
(my two older kids call him the cookie monster) he does make about as big of a mess.

Answer 1

Great question! When I was little I had a bunch. I used to call underwear boompies, a piano...pinana, a wristwatch....wish-wash and then my mom taught me to say some of the more imbarrasing words differently. For instance, a vagina was an aaz, breasts were gickies, and your period was called a feayah-feayah. If I accidently spoke of these things while we were out, people didn't know what I was talking about which saved her a whole lot of imbarresment. lol. My little girl is 2 and she has a few of her own that are so cute too. She calls water...woolow, she calls brocolli...blocklee, and she knows that the word sit is much funnier when we're in a restaurant and I'm telling her to stop jumping in the booth and to sit, and she keeps it up and yells "SH*T-SH*T!!" Ya gotta laugh!

Answer 2

My 3 yo son drops the gr from grass. My mom has very long grass in her backyard, and my son loves to tell people about Grandma's big (drop the gr)***. We do not encourage him to swear, but i do find this very cute because he is actually trying to say the word and has no idea that he is swearing.

He also says allbody instead of everybody. "Where is allbody?"

Answer 5

My 2-year old brother says the tagalog word for I don't want it now, ayaw na, as ayaw ma*. And he USED TO call his yaya Tata who helps me with my school stuff Yaya apo. When will he kick the habit of ayaw na/ma/just plain ayaw? WAAAAAH! (T A T) Well, he said Car and Light as Yait (pronounced yl-yi-tuh) and Kaa. Like Ellen deGeneres saying KA!

*Mom makes him say no thanx instead. AYAW IMPLOTE RLY.

aww.....so funny. My little cousin use to misprounce spagetti. She say scabetti. I thought it was cute. And when my brother was very young, in tagalog ( language in the Philippines) grandfather is pronounced lolo so my little brother would say yoyo instead of lolo. Everyone thought that was funny.
