Let us talk about CHILD'S WORD #1 (permalink) Fri Nov 07, 2008 14:55 pm   Let us talk about CHILD'S WORD
 

Hello everybody,

There are a lot of what we call CHILD'S WORD. Can you write the words that are used by kids in English ?

I am going to write the first word I know which is:

Boo-boo: It means a sligh injury. (It also has the meaning of a mistake)

Take care

Hi Happytofita,

in the region where I live (no English speaking environment) some noise you can hear (when adults are talking to children) sound how I would pronounce Boo Boo and means sleeping. You see, even kids do have foreign languages since the meaning of similar words can be quite different, provided that sleeping isnīt a mistake. Wink

see ya
