i have been practising my talking for weeks now and find that some words are more effective than others, so here is a list of my first words
1. daddy
2. dawwwgie
3. hot
4. boobie
5. up
6. hat
7. cat(have you noticed yet there is no need for the word mummy?)
8. car
9.bike
10. hao (my first chinese word!! are you proud of me?)
11. baba (another chinese word - means daddy)
12. nana (thats my name incase you didnt know)
13. bao bao (chinese for hug)
14. mummy (she is mostly with me so i dont need to say it often)
so we went to the doctors the other day with gak(great aunt kate) she was getting her boobies checked - i think they must be broken cos she always tells me they are empty no matter how often i ask - so we were in the waiting room with lots and lots of other ladies, the men were all round the corner.
this old lady asked if she could pick me up - bao bao - i allowed her to do so, then i started to say "Boobie"
" Boobie, boobie boooooobie, BOOOBIE!!"!" and pulling at her shirt, looking inside to see her boobies and making my milk sign too.........she didnt understand me??! so i tried again
"Boobie, boobie, booooobie" and grabbing her she then asked my milk machine
"Ta yao shemne?" (means what does she want?)
milk machine said "ta yao chi nei nei" (means literally she wants to eat boobies(nei nei) or breast feed in other words)
so the old lady laughed and starts telling everyone in the room that i want to chi nei nei, hahahaha and that her nei nei are empty and have no milk
the only person not laughing was milk machine, she looked all red in the face
talking is great!
