What word is my speech delayed daughter saying?

Thedarksideofthemoon30 · 13/04/2021 19:15

My dd4 has a speech delay, she’s trying her hardest to tell me about her friend at school but she keeps saying “Sharon” and when I repeat the name she is getting angry because it’s not right! I can’t think what it could be!

Help me lol it’s driving both of us insane!

Seren? Cornish name?

Duckyneedsaclean · 13/04/2021 19:16

Sharing maybe? The friend sharing (or not!) with her?

Happytohelp1 · 13/04/2021 19:17

Agree with the posters above. If it’s a name it sounds like Seren to me. If it’s not, Sounds like sharing to me!

EduCated · 13/04/2021 19:18

Seren? Sarah? Does she tend to get her S sounds right or could it start with a different sound?

APurpleSquirrel · 13/04/2021 19:18

Sennen
Seren
Shannon?

She’s normally good with her s sounds.

She said it’s S A but might not be lol Iv told her my listening ears aren’t working right now so I’ll turn them on in the morning!

Sauran! I'm guessing Seren though.

Choice4567 · 13/04/2021 19:21

I’m leaning towards sharing

TheThingsWeAdmitOnMN · 13/04/2021 19:21

Any chance is salmon?

Thedarksideofthemoon30 · 13/04/2021 19:22

Siren

PolarnOPirate · 13/04/2021 19:22

First thing I heard was ‘seven’. What’s the context?

Choice4567 · 13/04/2021 19:22

Is there more context in the sentence - is it definitely a friends name?

Thedarksideofthemoon30 · 13/04/2021 19:22

It’s deffo her name, we were talking about her friends she wants to invite to her party in July.

Shannon, Savannah?

TheThingsWeAdmitOnMN · 13/04/2021 19:23

I presume you've asked her to show you? draw a picture? Etc.

SparklingLime · 13/04/2021 19:23

Seven?

CuriousaboutSamphire · 13/04/2021 19:24

Email her teacher and ask for suggestions.

butterrcup · 13/04/2021 19:24

Sarah?

PrincessTuna · 13/04/2021 19:24

Sarah-Anne?

Sarah?

You don’t have a class WhatsApp or similar do you, where you could ask if anyone knows children with names beginning with S?

TheThingsWeAdmitOnMN · 13/04/2021 19:25

Oh sorry, I got a bit carried away as I listened to her before I was swayed by the replies.

Probably not salmon! 🤣

MildredPuppy · 13/04/2021 19:25

I hear Sarah
