Jonah phrase book

Here is a little guide to Jonah's language. It may come in handy. I will add to it as he learns new words.

Czech:

ta (short for "bota") = shoe - NEW!*

ka (short for "knížka") = book

da (short for "voda") = water - NEW!

koka (short for "kočka" or "kočka") = cat

pey (short for "pejsek") = doggie - NEW!

mé (short for "méďa") = baby word for bear

kytí = baby word for flower

kačka = ducky

papa (short for "papat") = baby word for "eat," but I use it exclusively for "nurse" - NEW!

co je to? = what is this/that?

English:

door

kitty

book - NEW!

cup - NEW!

gun - NEW!

dada (or daddy)

mama (also Czech)

I think he also says "ka-kuh" for cracker (same word in Czech), but that one is very new

By the way, I just read that the average 18-month-old says ten words. Jonah knows more than that already. Hey, maybe he'll skip kindergarten altogether and go straight to baby college!

* By NEW I mean Jonah started saying the word in the last two or three days though he understood it much longer ago.
