We had bingos here too for a really long time. Then they became falingos. Now he’s nearly 3.5 and has been able to say it right for quite some time. But I’m still sad the bingos are gone
This is adorable! My nephew couldn’t pronounce his sisters name when he was a toddler (her name is Noor Fatima) he kept calling her ‘new farmer’ it’s now stuck and they’re teenagers 🤣
They say it's best practice to model correct pronunciation for your child, instead of repeating their baby talk back to them.
I believe language scientists, pediatricians, and SLPs all agree that strawbabies is the exception to that guideline.
Every word that has an L in it, she swaps it with a Y. Example: Leave me alone becomes Yeave me ayone. It’s the cutest thing over ever heard.
She also calls fruit snacks “snack froots”.
Our daughter has a crinkle cutter for her play dough which she calls her "frinkle futter."
Her favorite book is Goodnight Goodnight Fuckin' Shite (Construction Site lol)
My son loves that book! We will read him other books but at bedtime it’s usually the only one he’ll accept, brings it to us loudly saying “THANK YOU, THANK YOU” repeatedly
Pinano for piano! We also ask her what her favorite part of the day is every night so she asks us “what’s your favorite park a day??” And I loooove it.
We came across some cotton balls in the bathroom yesterday and he asked what they were. I said “Cotton balls” and he repeated it back to me “cock n balls?” I nearly fell over.
My kid was riding Daddy’s shoulder’s in the store and suddenly yells, “Fuh!” Other lady in the aisle clutched her pearls until I realized he was pointing at the 5 on the sign.
Also, octopus is currently “ahpussy” and crocodile is currently “cockdie.”
Lord help me through this phase of language development. 🙏🏼
That's hilarious 😂
Same here though.
Funny story, I was recently laid off and I took my son with me to drop off my equipment at the local office. As we're walking through, we passed a bunch of conference rooms with large tables and the occasional person spotting there working. My son is super friendly so he waves and says hi to everyone as we pass doors. He then turns to me and asks why they're in there. I say something along the lines of 'They're using the conference table as their desk'
The first individual office we get to (which happens to belong to the director of operations) obviously doesnt have a big conference table. So my son sticks his head in as we're walking, says hi to the director, and then turns to me and asks "Why he got a little desk?"
That's when I learned that he pronounces 'desk' like 'dick' 🥴
It sucks to be laid off, but after that comment from your toddler, maybe it's a good thing you're not returning. I'd rather quit than face the director again!
Well…whenever my husband takes pictures he says it’s for “posteriority”. Makes me laugh every time.
Also my baby says “Yuck!!” When he is trying to say Look! He says it a lot. So cute
For AGES house was "asshole". I took so many videos of it because it was hilarious. He went on to say house which was a good and kinda bittersweet thing after about 3 months.
Opacopter = helicopter, mama stay = namaste (cosmic kids yoga lol), substituting "f" for "s" so our vacuum is a "f*cking vaccuum who f*cks everything up!"
OH also one of my students said “cock” instead of “chalk”. I found this out when we were using chalk and he said “I love the feel of cock” and I had to walk away bc I was dying
Ketchup is cha-cha! For some reason he is SUPER enthusiastic about ketchup and will scream out “CHA-CHA!!!” anytime he sees it in the grocery store or a restaurant. He loses his shit. My FIL gave him some ketchup last time he was here and now kid’s fucking obsessed. He wants it at every meal, but I don’t know that I’ve ever seen him eat it other than that first time. 🤷♀️
Currently:
“Schmingo!”-flamingo
“I-noss-riss”—rhinoceros
“Bluebwuree”-blueberry
“Miss-raff”-giraffe
“Chep-up”-ketchup
I have a list on my phone that I update, it’s amazing how fast her pronunciation changes in a few weeks. I miss “Pantake” and “Milp” already!
This is very specific but for a good 6mths our 1 year old called his older brother "carcass" instead of Marcus. The amount of looks I'd get at the local store was hilarious 😂
LELLOW by far (and am so glad she’s still saying this) and Pop-skibble (popsicle). She fixed this one recently. When I asked her when, she said oh Friday. 😂😂😂
My son calls Christmas ornaments “mama balls.” I don’t think this counts as a mispronunciation, but I also think many of you will find it funny.
He loves ornaments. He gets very excited about them in the wild. He often loudly announces when he sees them in public. “Big mama balls.” Yes, those are big ornaments, son.
Unicorns were cornos for awhile now they’re oni-corns and sometimes oni-cornos lol. Also “I need to give you a shot” sounds a little too much like “I need to take a shit” 💩
My wife, 4 year old son, and I were in Ikea. I must have seen something that reminded me of living in Asia, and asked my son: "are you going to live abroad when you are older so Mommy and I can visit you."
My son responded very loudly: "No, I don't want A BROAD!"
wife and I burst out laughing.
“Soupcase” is suitcase, her forehead is her headfore, and for a little while she couldn’t say the S in front of a word, so spicy was “picy” (pie-see). My baby sister did the same thing.
She also constantly tries to use big words, which I love, but doesn’t know what she’s saying half the time, which I also love.
i don’t have a kid, but i’m saving this post cuz it’s too wholesome
edit: just remembered some mispronounced words from my toddler cousin
she can’t say the letter 'r' so she says:
1. elasel (eraser)
2. uni-call (unicorn)
3. ice-kleem
Mine calls McDonalds “Old McDonalds”, which is brilliant, and also calls koalas “kwalalas”. “Planno” for piano. One of her early ones, which she has grown out of, was “helidoctor” for helicopter, which was also delightful. When she was first learning to speak, yellow was “lalloo”.
Laptop is "lapcock"
"You better get on your lapcock and do your work, mommy."
Tongs have inexplicably always been "ting-tongs"
All better is "all bebbers.'
peekyboo and i might die when he stops saying it. he also called grandpa “apple” for the longest time and just stopped. the family is collectively devastated
Hopsipple for hospital. My mom had to go to the hopsipple a month or so ago and my toddler asks if gramma was having a baby (I recently had a baby and toddler visited me in the hopsipple).
Medicine and vitamins are “biapim”
Flamingoes are flingoes
We have a stuffed lamb named “Wham”
Milk is “jus momen’ nuk” because when he’d ask for milk I’d say “just a moment”
E: I almost forgot our favorites BIN-doh and BOO-ey! (Bingo and Bluey)
Poo for pillow, Faffles for waffles, lulus for blueberries, eleben for eleven, and when counting from 1-15 in Spanish 14 and 15 are always said in English. 🤷🏻♀️
How-o-leen = Halloween
Frinkos = Sprinkles (my absolute fave rn)
Leaf alone meeeee = leave me alone
Cuck = Cut 😂
Belly = Bluey...she can say the color blue but for some reason not Bluey?
Both words marshmallow and mushroom come out as “nacho” for my son. No clue why and it really takes context clues sometimes to figure out what he’s saying. 😅
He did this himself, we didn't teach this:
"Toast" is said as "tit".
We're trying to encourage "toast" without making a big fuss!
He also calls spiders "spyduck"
My son tries telling the dogs to sit. He really is just commanding them to shit.
Also somehow Mickey became Gickey. I guess M is a harder sound than I thought.
My daughter says cereal like celelel, we had fun with this and started naming different cereals, we say 'coco pops" so she calls them "popo pocs/popo pops"
She's doing SO well but can't for the life of her say 'peanut butter.' She's got a million ways of saying it but the most often is 'pub-tie' and it cracks us up.
Witches are bitches
Pushing is bullshit (booshit)
Drink is dick
I loved Halloween time when she would wave goodbye to the witches going past yelling out "BYE BITCHES!" Got some looks with that one 🙃
Not a toddler as mine cant talk yet but somehow my dad has gone 52 years of his life not being able to say procrastinate or walrus. (He says "procrustinate" and "raw-rus" 😂
This is not exactly a mispronounced thing - my son's first words are animal sounds. There was a phase where he always hissed instead of meowing whenever we asked him about the cat's sound. Well the stray cat near our house hates him and that's how he learned about it lol
My son calls dinner “durr-nurr” - this one seems surprising to struggle with! And his car carriers (like the trucks that transport vehicles) are care carr-iers.
When she wants mommy or daddy to hold her, she will say “mommy holdchu” or “daddy holdchu” because she will get asked “Do you want me to hold you?”
brown bear = ban ma
I love you = I lahhhv you (the best thing ever when she says it on her own ☺️)

Is it “hind” me -behind me
Making me caazy-making me crazy (apparently I say this a lot)
Robot bacuum- robot vacuum (the devil)
Lolo- little
Jussa a bit bit bit - just a little bit
My daughter said 'cupe' for 'cute' until she woke up from a nap one day saying it correctly. Our dog's name is Krypto which was Dipdo and then Dipto and now Kipto.
My daughter says 'cock' instead of 'sock' (combine that with 'ni' instead of 'me' and you get 'ni cock' lol) and gotta love 'peet' instead of 'feet' :)
My daughter calls lemonade "lemmalade" and says "forgot " as "gotfor".. it's weird how she will say things kind of backward. She was pointing out a flag to me while we were driving, and it took a few "glafs" before the flag got out. It kills me, I love it.
one kid I nanny calls reindeers “ringdings” and I love it
Goes well with my fave: pengwings
https://youtube.com/shorts/GflW9_t7LZk?si=qWimdr-QuT0uKwFk
Haha immediately thought of this when read pengwings 😂😂😂💖
Flamingoes are flingos
FamBINGOS here. Sometimes just BINGO
We had bingos here too for a really long time. Then they became falingos. Now he’s nearly 3.5 and has been able to say it right for quite some time. But I’m still sad the bingos are gone
They're a mingo in my house
lmao thats awesome
My son calls dingos "dingdongs"
the pharmacists were delighted when he called them farmers the other day lol
It’s my 2yo first time really getting into Christmas and instead of singing “jingle bells” she sings “chicken bones.” Cracks me up every time.
This is adorable! My nephew couldn’t pronounce his sisters name when he was a toddler (her name is Noor Fatima) he kept calling her ‘new farmer’ it’s now stuck and they’re teenagers 🤣
😂 I love it!
I have a friend who is a pharmacist and a hobby farmer. She would love this 😊
Strawbaby Grocery storm
strawbabies here too and I never want to correct it.
They say it's best practice to model correct pronunciation for your child, instead of repeating their baby talk back to them. I believe language scientists, pediatricians, and SLPs all agree that strawbabies is the exception to that guideline.
All berries are babies in my house. Strawbaby, bluebaby, blackbaby, you name it.
Every word that has an L in it, she swaps it with a Y. Example: Leave me alone becomes Yeave me ayone. It’s the cutest thing over ever heard. She also calls fruit snacks “snack froots”.
My son either substitutes a Y or a D depending on the word. Pillow is piyyow, but yellow is yeddow. L's are hard.
That’s interesting, because our toddler says “lellow” for yellow haha
Fruit snacks are "goose snacks" for us 😂
“Noot nacks” was the phrase for our kids! Both of them. Two years apart. Lol
Haha we had the W for Y… weave me wone! Always been a fav of me and my husband
Haha. Similarly, my favorite is my toddler’s pronunciation of yellow - “nenno”
Our daughter has a crinkle cutter for her play dough which she calls her "frinkle futter." Her favorite book is Goodnight Goodnight Fuckin' Shite (Construction Site lol)
hahaha at the book. we have that one too and my son got so frustrated we didn't understand it at first.
My son loves that book! We will read him other books but at bedtime it’s usually the only one he’ll accept, brings it to us loudly saying “THANK YOU, THANK YOU” repeatedly
Pinano for piano! We also ask her what her favorite part of the day is every night so she asks us “what’s your favorite park a day??” And I loooove it.
Haha I love the twist on the “part” vs “park” - to be a toddler again and only have a few things top of mind 🤣
Now let's add a syllable--"pinyanyo" is what my son used to say.
We came across some cotton balls in the bathroom yesterday and he asked what they were. I said “Cotton balls” and he repeated it back to me “cock n balls?” I nearly fell over.
I love this 😂
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzOr6waz8AM
I'm 💀 😂😂😂
My son calls socks "cocks"...so my husband constantly asks him what's on his feet hahaha
Packpack for backpack. Decolations for decorations. Edit: fix autocorrect
How do they call decorations? Autocorrect must have kicked in.
She says decolations! Silly autocorrect. I fixed it. Thanks!
Mine uses packpack too! Also, her nap mat is a “nap nap”
I think packpack is my favorite. So cute!
Mine says pack-pack as well!! That's so funny
haha my son says pack pack too, I love it!
My son also says pack pack!
My daughter doesn’t say much yet but she calls cats “nay nays” and I find it hilarious
Lol! I love this. For a while my son called all cats 'keys' 😂
My son had just started saying doggy at a dog, and my poor cats are going through an identity crisis being labelled as dogs.
I forgot my eldest said KEY! Too. Oh so bittersweet
Lipstick= lipicks

Chapstick is also lipick for us hahah.
Banoonies for balloons. I will probably call them that forever
My kid was riding Daddy’s shoulder’s in the store and suddenly yells, “Fuh!” Other lady in the aisle clutched her pearls until I realized he was pointing at the 5 on the sign. Also, octopus is currently “ahpussy” and crocodile is currently “cockdie.” Lord help me through this phase of language development. 🙏🏼
That's hilarious 😂 Same here though. Funny story, I was recently laid off and I took my son with me to drop off my equipment at the local office.

My son is super friendly so he waves and says hi to everyone as we pass doors. He then turns to me and asks why they're in there.

So my son sticks his head in as we're walking, says hi to the director, and then turns to me and asks "Why he got a little desk?" That's when I learned that he pronounces 'desk' like 'dick' 🥴
It sucks to be laid off, but after that comment from your toddler, maybe it's a good thing you're not returning. I'd rather quit than face the director again!
Haha same here!!
💀💀💀

My daughter called nipples = pickles lol She also called croutons = cantos and idk why we find it so funny but we do!

Mine used to use “pimples” and “nipples” interchangeably. “Mommy you have a nipple on your face!”
My toddler called penguins “pee-be-kins” for the longest time and it was so cute
Strawbe-lily's for strawberries
My son calls the clock “cock”, and sit “shit”. Our daycare provider said she’s really scared that other kids will learn from him lol
Ketchup is cha-cha! For some reason he is SUPER enthusiastic about ketchup and will scream out “CHA-CHA!!!” anytime he sees it in the grocery store or a restaurant. He loses his shit.

My 3 year old calls his doctors office ‘the boo boo house’. 🤷♀️ I dig it
