This is my NIECE, my lovely dear niece.

She is just merely 14 months and started to talk some sense.

The following is her as of now vocab dictionary, it is hard to limit it to a definite list as she is learning real fast.

So here it goes:

1. “Seik” – As in eat in cantonese, this is her first learned word. Whenever she sees food and she wants to eat she said this. Recently she has been using it interchanging with “Mumm Mumm“.

2. “Pa pa” – A term that she used to call her dad and also her mum. Apparently she still can’t quite distinguish between Pa Pa and Ma Ma.

3. “Ma Ma” – Only used to refer to her mum when we corrected her after referring her Ma Ma as Pa Pa.

4. “Gai Gai” Ah – Her usual accent when she wants to go for a walk, ended up with a high pitch in the Ah.

5. “bao bei” ya – Her little blue blanket that she must hug when she sleeps. So she will walk and wonder in the house and keep on saying “bao bei ya” until she finds it and satisfiedly holding it.

5. “Byie” ya – Her own way of saying good bye if she is in a good mood.

6. ”non more” – Supposingly is “No More”. A term that I taught her when I finish bathing her, so that she knows there is no more water to play with. However, today she used it confusingly as “no” when she indicates she does not want to finish the milk.

7. “bish” – A term that she just learned yesterday. She is refered to fish actually but didn’t pronounce it the way it should be.

8. “xie xie” – Shoe in mandarin, refering to her shoes when she wants to go out for a walk.

9. “goot goot” – Baby term of plain water. She used it when she wants to drink water.

10. “nien nien” – Milk in baby term.

11. “yao yao yao” – Refering her sleeping net, I used that as her swing as well thus the term.

12. “wou wou wou” – A dog.

13. “da” – Hitting in mandaring. She says this when she sees the big bad wolf in her litter red riding hood story book.

The list goes on, the rest were not listed here, because she is speaking her own baby language and I am not able to decode it with my adult vocab dictionary. Perhaps one day when she speak more adult language or when I have make advancement in her baby language.
