牙牙学语

小玄子is definitely trying to communicate with us, albeit just via some nonsensical blabbering. She has picked up some more words though. A bit off, but still understandable.

‘街街’ (Gai Gai) is Ga Ga

‘鞋子’ is Je Zi

‘谢谢’ is Xe Xe

‘姐姐’ is Je Je

‘舅舅’ is Giu Giu

‘婆婆’ is Bo Bo

‘抱抱’ is Ba4 Ba4

'Bye Bye' is also Ba Ba

Luckily, there are still some more words that she did picked up accurately and is speaking well.

‘公公’，‘姑姑’，‘奶奶’，‘爷爷’，'Ball' and 'Apple' sounds right.

She has been producing her own baby lingo as well. Mickey and Minnie Mouse are called 'bak' for unknown reasons. And she has been humming 'um mo po', 'um bo po' and 'um mo po po' frequently. Nobody seems to be able to decipher that or relate that to anything. *scratch head*

Interesting!
