DS1 wrote SMUTIS on a shopping list. And TMUTOS.

'Aie liv in saf Lunden.'
From DS.

'I lyk drincin war and pleyin wif the hamsta.'
I think 'war' translating as 'water' might tell you that he has a heavy accent.

And 'mummi coums frum Sweedin and daddi coums from Ruzshia.' I think he picked up some Polish from my DM with the zs.

And 'I lyk the boos.'
For bus.

'Raynebo'
From dd2 aged four.

Not written but when my cousin was little we were all in the car playing I spy and she'd asked us for something beginning with 'J' we were guessing for ages and had to give up.

Turns out it was dress!

Dds imaginary friends are Daze and Maze (daisy and maisy) she's only 4 bless her, she made a book the other day about goldilocks and although most words were spelt wrong they made absolute sense phonetically!!

MrsMelons · 19/05/2013 13:29

DS2 wrote 'I luv yoo' on a note to me after I had told him off.

My niece wrote a Santa letter and drew pictures of what she wanted then labelled the pictures. She had written 'dic' next to the CD.

AChickenCalledKorma · 19/05/2013 15:13

Loving "saf Lunden"

DD1 wrote about playing in the "feeyold"

Hadn't really realised what a little Estuary accent she was developing until that moment!

quip · 19/05/2013 16:14

I have a note on the kitchen door saying "To mummy yorthe dest mummyinthe youniverse and I loveyou andcanwe gotothat qlase wher youcan stayina dall pit love ds2"

If you're struggling to translate - he wanted me to take him to the crèche in ikea :)

When ds was small he drew a picture with a parrot in it, and the parrot was saying "Scworc" (Squawk)! Grin

CorrieDale · 19/05/2013 16:46

Dd made herself a passport in Turns out she was born in Inglund (well, inglunb to be completely avcurate) and her surname (field) is fiuld. Yes, we do live near Birmingham!

A little boy in my class was trying to write 'hedgehog'. He said, " I've got the 'egg' but I need the 'jog'....."Smile

DS2 has just finished his homework of his favourite tv characters (cariters). Crious Joj (curious george) made me laugh

Smartieaddict · 19/05/2013 19:48

Bteetoo was my favourite from DS. (potato) Sort of sounds like it should be said with an Irish accent, although we are not Irish.

NorksAreMessy · 19/05/2013 20:29

DD once wrote me a list of household tasks she was prepared to undertake, with prices attached...very enterprising.

For 50p I could procure her services for 'hovering and pulping' (pulping is what you do to sofa cushions to make them not flat)

And for £1 she would 'solv ani promble'....very useful. If only she still offered this service

Nicnocknoo · 19/05/2013 21:31

Ds1 now 9 drew a picture of what he had seen on a class walk. He hadn't planned out how long his word would be so in the middle of the page wrote "cunt" with "reeside" spilling down the side of the page. Dh has that on his desk at work.

ShipwreckedAndComatose · 19/05/2013 21:39

It's from secondary school but I once had a 'buns and bunner' labelled on a diagram in a girl's book (Bunsen burner)
