My nieces and nephews have come up with a lot of weird and wonderful words over the years.
My favourites being
- Bana = Banana
- Welwet = Velvet
- Geep = Sleep
- Sleetober = sleepover
- Odger = orange
- The Archbishop of Canterbury was "Theres no fish in the country"
- Horse Carrousel Ride was the Hot Caramel Ride
- Pingy = penguin
- Pointing = Anything that Lily wants
When I was little I probably did this a bit too. I made up song lyrics in my head, which now sound ridiculous.
What words did you make up when you were little? Any gems?
And a partridge in a pear tree = And a party ginger pear tree.
ReplyDeleteThat's the only one Mum can remember.
Sarah had 'dowie' for 'that' but I think that was because she was always having to speak around a dummy.
(Happy birthday by the way x)
Haha. Those are funny. I couldn't pick a favorite, but Hot Caramel Ride is pretty good!
ReplyDeleteMy nephew invented "meaniac." I take it to be a combo of meany and maniac.
ReplyDeleteWe live by the erie canal and whenever we go for a walk along it my little one says it's the ribber, the ribber. I love that one.
