24 month old making up words

[Chundle]

hi all just wondering if your kids of same age make up words for things a couple of examples are
gugong - jump
Didoh - clown

She has many more but won't bore you in typing them all! They just seem a bit odd and sound nothing like the real word so only close family understand them. She does have bit of speech delay

Thanks my dd however keeps her strange words and uses them constantly as if they are real words!

Dd2, who was a very good speaker, made up words sometimes between the age of 18 months and 2yo. Some of them you could see where it came from ("bi-bi" was biscuit for example. She could say biscuit perfectly well) and some of them you couldn't.
It didn't worry me, but if a good proportion of her language was made up I think I'd have mentioned it to someone. Some children do make up their own language, I think it's most common in identical twins.

I used to make up some words as a child. Dooweg = double-decker bus. Wibber wibber = helicopter. Hector = tube train. Back a back = motor bike. I am now chief sub-editor on a major women's magazine and pretty adept at the old lingo... As long as it's only some words, sure it's totally normal.

Thanks for the replies guys.
Queen thanks there's great hope for her then :)

We have this too. DS (3.0) still uses a few "own" words. E.g. he calls clothes pegs "Beetlebugs", Lifts are "B'doinks" and any form of injury is "an Owwy". The rest of his speech is really good, I don't discourage this at all - he used to have lots more "own" words and is gradually dropping them so I'm happy to cling on to the last few.
