words that grandchildren mispronounce

My 6 year old DGD no longer calls blueberries boobiels, or strawberries stawbiels. But a lot a creatures are still aminals. Her mother used to insist that we sat on a settetee, and her favourite colour was Ellow!! We would be corrected if we did not pronounce them her way. Her sister loved gravery on her meat!

I loved hearing "warbrobe" and "heffalump" i.e. Wardrobe and Elephant!

Our last used to call vouchers “vultures”. I still call them that…

Jim jams were pyjamas

Raspberries were always sabrries and the computer was a conamfuter! ?

We also call biscuits "git gits"!

When my daughter was very young she called a biscuit a 'bit sick' and we still call them that over 30 years later

My eldest misread the name Hermione as Hermi-won.

Our dgd age 9 has only recently stopped saying veggibles for vegetables.

We had tac tac tors for tractors and penpines for penguin

Marks Expensive for M&S!

Yes it is!

I work with adults with learning difficulties and was told by one of the ladies earlier they were collecting red rum.
Later I realised she meant bread crumbs for the ducks.

Not so much mispronounced words rather than how they are strung together. But when my DS was in reception I once had his teacher very embarrassingly come up and ask if we could teach him the correct way to phrase knife and fork. Because he would say Fork & Knife and sound like he was cursing each time. We sat down and had a chat with him and so did teacher. So later when he repeated Fork & Knife his teacher calmly reminded him that "Do you remember the conversation we had about how you can't ask for a Fork & Knife" like that? My son forgetting our explanation or not understanding turned round hands on hips and said "Well fine I suppose I'll have a Fork n Spoon then please"

Sounded like Fork & Knife = F@#&ing Knife and Fork & Spoon like F@#&ing Spoon.

Out in the car my two year old suggested that I put on the 'windscreeper wipers' when it started to rain. I almost slipped up and used that term in Halfords last year when buying a new set.

My 3 yr old grandson says cardiganon. We kept wondering why. All was explained the childminder says to all her kids when going out don't forget to put your cardigan on!

We still say argme instead of argue and I was called Gammy before GC could pronounce Rs.

Our little granddaughter called us 'Nanny and Ganker' for a while. Out for Sunday lunch with hye family, the whole pub went on Pause when she called him from across the room!

Coin apple for pineapple or pine cone. Balarns, for pyjamas or bananas. Sky pencil for a vapour trail, too many to go into here, I think I could write a book!!

At the start of my 2nd year at school, where we all had our names next to our pegs for coats, I thought one of the new kindergarten lot had a very weird name - who ever heard of a girl called Peen-lope?

Gwanny.
That's really sweet.

Mum told me that I always wanted biginer on my chips.
Granddaughter could not master vegetables, and they were vegebles for years.
Our youngest granddaughter, just 2 loves to pick the buddertups on my lawn.

Can I have some “Cheese and Parmas” on my spaghetti too, please?

I used to run a playgroup and DH said I should write a book about all the lovely things children say. One that sticks in my mind is when a little boy asked me why ‘blueloons’ were called blue when they come in lots of colours. A friends child pointed a field of sheep and said ‘they’re not moo cows, they’re baaf rooms’.

When we had building work going on our daughter of 5 said we were having ‘ a lost extemption ‘ ( loft extension )

Burple loons we’re my DGS’s favourite - purple balloons
