Amusing mispronunciations...

[Picante]

Oh I know it's been done before but I wanted to share these ones from ds (3)...

I like boobies (blueberries).

Can we go and collect some fellas? (feathers).

Please share your own .

[Niknak21]

oh and Buzzlightyear was something similar to todger, well that's what nursery thought

[QueenOfFlamingEverything]

DD has just asked me "What did cats evaporate from?" after a discission about evolution!

[chickatee]

When DS was younger he used to call cornflakes "porncakes" , and he used to say the weather was froggy, instead of foggy.

He is 5.5 now and he still calls the doorbell the "dingbell".

He came home from school yesterday and announced that 2 children in his class were the "little warnings" . I asked him to elaborate and he said "y'know, they pick up the rubbish at the end of breaktime (litter wardens!)

When my older DS was little he told me one day that a new boy had joined his class at school and he was from Little Mania (Lithuania)

DS2 (7) uses sniffles for smell ie 'what sniffles nice in here' so cute we've all started to use it.
DS3 (2.5) not so cute, as when he says another tractor it comes out as mutha facker, and we live in a very rural area...

[OrmIrian]

zimzamzee - chimpanzee.

wobbly - wallaby.

I like those particularly.

[TheLadyEvenstar]

Oh we also have...

yoyurt - yoghurt
duce - juice
har - car
ky - sky
ea - tea
nin nins - dinner
ickle - iggle piggle

but my nightmare fav one is

bobwecan said as one word and meaning can we fix it yes we can

[mankymummymoo]

Fucking troller = fat controller
tomatees - smartees
construction book - instruction book

[FairMidden]

DS confused us this morning by repeatedly asking for "moohear". Eventually worked out he wanted me to sing Old Macdonald Had a Farm

[lostinwales]

Ha TLE may have to borrow 'bobwecan' for my house, that's brilliant!

[Mmmmcoffee]

DD used to say lello for yellow, aminal (I think that's pretty common), mimit for "a minute", sinbwella for cinderalla.

We used to ask her to say "Can Cinderella have a yellow animal in a minute" and then we'd all fall about laughing.

[MrsBadger]

yoghurt is a hard word

dd calls them Aggurts

[TheLadyEvenstar]

LOL Lost you can borrow it but only if you sing it offkey to the theme tune repeatedly....for what seems like eternity the length of the title song lol.

[Mmmmcoffee]

My mum is lovely, she says Leonor for Lenor, and does her dishes with Fairy-Up liquid.

Nothing beats when I was a teenager and she told me I'd be dis-a-fucking-pointed with my exam results! That's a standard in our house now.

[Bettymum]

These are lovely
DD's (20 months) cutest one is pengmin instead of penguin. I deliberately keep rereading the Snail and the Whale so I can point to the picture and say "what are these?"
"Pengmins!"
She calls pigeons Pingmins

[ginnny]

DS2 is 6 now and he told me he had had Chicken Philip for lunch at Nannies.

(It was Chicken Fillet !!)

[DottieB]

Thanks everyone, I've been crying with laughter!! Here are mine...
Tiss twit = twist it
Pirate light = pilot light
Don't take the peas, mummy (had made a picture on the plate with her dinner and was "helping out" by eating some of it)
I'm boring = I'm bored
Wizard drier = reservoir (as in "Can we take the dogs to the wizard drier daddy?", took us a while to work out!)

[PiggyPenguin]

DS1 used to say 'fire maker' instead of 'fire engine'.

Our local engine used to have a habit of parking up outside sainsburys and doing a sandwich run at lunch time and if we saw them he'd get very excited and yell 'fire maker, fire maker' at the top of his voice. They were very perplexed.

[whoingodsnameami]

DT2 tells people I go to the gym so I will get strong muffles.

[mumsiebumsie]

When I was younger, I liked to sit for dinner in the seat closest to the kitchen door. Mum always used to tell me to close the door otherwise "the DRAFT will get me" (i.e. it was chilly) so I always closed the door. If anyone opened the door I'd cry hysterically and apparently no one knew why.

Years later I was able to articulate that I didn't want the door open as the "GIRAFFE" would get me.

Can't wait till my baby sprouts and I can have these experiences - they're so cute.

[Picante]

Blimey this thread has taken off!

at all of these. Thanks!

[breadmummy]

little L constantly calls his cutlery "forking knife".

my partner and i rarely swear and its getting rather scary!

[JulesJules]

DD1 used Fablious for fabulous, Stylitch for stylish, and Lunk for lunch.

DD2 - (who doesn't like salad) Lettuce is for Caterkillers

All standard pronounciations in our house now.

[Kateaw]

Vermilla - a flavour of ice cream
Slounger - to sit on while sun bathing
Wep wipes - for wiping your bum
Insplore - look around
Insplode - it goes bang
Plocky - suction cup (her toothbrush has plocky feet)

She's five

Also there was a boy in her class at nursery who is hearing impaired. I always pictured him in a black cowl, holding a scythe because according to her he is Death...

[hootyfish]

My only just 3 DS told me they'd done a firehammer at nursery the other day

He meant fire drill!

[kittywise]

dc's call it insect day instead of inset day
