Mixed Bag

Jillu sings..

அ, ஆ , இ , ஈ , உ , ஊ , எ , ஏ, ஐ , I ,J , K, L , M, N, O,P, Q.....

LOL :) Poor thing ! English ,Tamil renduthuleyum "I" vandhaa, confuse aagama irukkumaa yenna ? 
(There is an "I" in both English and Tamil and hence no wonder that she is confused! )

Inexplicably Misconstrued !!!

While we were coming home yesterday, we saw a Juju (Jillu talk for Dog) on the road eating something from a paper lying on the road. 

I casually asked her, "Jillu, what is juju doing?"

She immediately replied "Koppu pidikardhu" (Jillu talk for "Koppalikardhu" ) which is basically goggling/rinsing one's mouth.

I was completely taken aback and am still amazed by the answer because I still cannot understand how she misconstrued a dog eating something to goggling :) and even now when I think about it, it makes me laugh :)

First person reference

Its You & Her and NOT I & me.

Jillu still has not got the hang of referring to herself properly.

Initially she used to refer to herself by second person reference. If she wanted biscuit, she said "unakku biscuit venum", "unakku paal venum" etc (You want biscuit, You want milk instead of I). If she wanted to get hold of something, she used to say "adha unakku kudu" (Give that to you!)

Now these days, after she heard us referring to her in 3rd person she has started to do the same. Now its "avulukku biscuit venum", "avulukku phone kudu" etc (She wants biscuit, Give the phone to her)
