My DC used to think the pavement was called 'off the road'!

We go to a swimming pool that has a whirlpool in it for the kids to play in. Ds1 used to ask if we could go to the "circle of doom". Dd translated this to "dircle of doom". Whenever we are going now we refer to it as the dircle. Even other family members do too.

Diarrhoea round here is known as rocket poo by the 3 yr old :) He also calls the bathroom scales, the "stand numbers", which I really like.

Oh we've got lots of these, most of which we still say even though dd is nearly 10. Mazagine instead of magazine, pulla pops for coco pops, washing mean (machine), all the body not everybody, the Shetland ponies up the lane are still called The Tonies (our neighbour when dd was a toddler). I know there are heaps more but can't think of any. I find myself saying them all the time and having to explain it Blush

As a family we all call my dad Bompa, which is what my now 22 year old niece called him when she couldn't get Grandpa. And we still say rootbeet for beetroot and cheapies for peaches, which were my brother's when we were little.

Ooh farely yes we all say marote too!!

NeverTalksToStrangers · 20/01/2015 23:33

We've had loads of these but my current favourite is the colour wellow.

Pasithea · 20/01/2015 23:36

Aeroplanes to my daughter are called Air-plane-dits. No idea why!

Teacups = hiccups

I loved the cutter up pear thread Smile

My DD says bitsick for biscuit

BreakfastAtStephanies · 21/01/2015 00:51

DS would say " where is body-one gone ? " after waving goodbye to visitors who had left our house

Everything is dubba here.

Dubba queen (lightning McQueen)
Dubbafy (butterfly)
Dubba paste (toothpaste)

I need to find cutted up pear. I could use a laugh.

SummerHouse · 21/01/2015 12:23

Do you want bigila on those chips? DS is 5 now and still believes in "bigila"

HappySeven · 21/01/2015 13:08

My DD likes to go outside and have a go on the jumpoline.

Gruntfuttock · 21/01/2015 13:12

That's a brilliant word! I like "jumpoline"!

WerewolfBarMitzvah · 21/01/2015 13:15

Lol at rocket poo.
We (grown up kids) call gloves 'glubs' in honour of my DB.

Discopanda · 21/01/2015 13:38

My DD still says Vs slightly like Bs so my BF is 'Auntie Bicky' and mummy likes abdocados. She's also a massive Peppa Pig fan and went through a phase of saying 'Freddy Fucks' and 'Cuckoo cock'

BikketBikketBikket · 21/01/2015 14:07

My DS used to have gunnectors to put his train lines together. The whole family still says this when connecting one thing to another - except him... (well, he is 41 this year... Grin)

BoyFromTheBigBadCity · 21/01/2015 18:40

I used to say gee not goose - so 2 geese, one gee.

ChatEnOeuf · 22/01/2015 11:46

Cutted - really?! That's destroyed an illusion for me Sad
