Children’s mispronunciations which have stuck.

[cheesersqueezer]

My son said ‘macamori’ instead of macaroni when he was younger. The whole family still refer to it as macamori, years later.

My friends son would ask for a ‘dinky dous’ when he wanted a drink of juice. We still say that now.

Any similar children’s mispronunciation’s which the whole family have adopted as their own?

Cubumber for cucumber
Biscetti bolognase = spaghetti bolognase
Huggle - a cross between a hug and a cuddle

My daughter puts a gongon on over her dress.

Blue twits

We get our school shoes from Clanks - look at the sign and you'll see DC2 is right!

Glitter for litter ( rather beautiful we always thought)

Jew-away for juice. Our DD always said this instead of juice and it's stuck. I'd like to just add that we're in no way anti semitic!

My friends little girl couldn't say our dogs name when she was little so said Shera instead of Sheila (names been changed but sounds similar) and we still call our dog that as a nickname.
My ed used to call milk nuk, so we call it that sometimes too.

@MissOrganisedMe

Hanitizer here too for us 😂😂 makes me laugh every time my 5 year old says it

We still like to eat raspbellies & strawbellies

Cubabumber - cucumber

Radidator - radiator

Tweeler - screwdriver

Monkeys - armpits

It will be sad when these all go.

I think they're sort of more like Spoonerisms (?), but have the bumble fryer (tumble dryer) and the bishbosher (dishwasher).

Femote control.
Its spiced tongue -for anything spicy/sour.
Packet of Kips
Squashage

We love watching Rory McIlrory play golf.....

DC called Jubilee 'Jubbly' & that's what I say (in my head)

Crips-pss-pss for crisps. My DD is 25 now and I still say it.

My DB used to say case instead of bus and he's 44 now. I still say that too.

Not quite the same - we have a spider-spoon (spaghetti server) but it does serve our pisketti.

Mee mee for dummy. No idea why or how we worked it out but we knew when my ds said mee mee he ment dummy. Sounds nothing like it. Now his little sisters dolls have a mee mee. And his days of asking for a mee mee are long gone.

Also ladyberg and handcups

Decker busser for double decker bus...still going 7 years in.

And sumbarine, b-sketti (spaghetti) and b-nast (gymnastics).

@Fuckingfuckssake

Underbrella for umbrella, which makes perfect sense when you think about it. Before that she called it a Doo Be Doo because we would do Singing In The Rain whenever we used it.

We have underbrellas too! Dd is almost 24 now

I’m loving all these toddlerisms

Tatterkiller (caterpillar)
Jumble bee (bumble bee)
Peter butter (peanut butter)
Switch mote (tv remote)

These are fab! I love baby words.

The ones that stuck for us were:

Heehal shoes
Hoatcangers
Pretendly (to so something pretend)
Allergic socks (electric shock!)
Hostible
Ursula (ulcer)

Misketti (spaghetti), chicken googles (goujons) and my favourite is a huggle (mix of hug and cuddle).

My daughter says mimi / mee mee for dummy too! Again no clue where from.

Minty instead of spicy. DH still asks if chilli or a curry is minty.

Waffoo is a feather

Squizzer is a squirrel
