Finnish

Finn is a talker. I feel like he talks very well.  He has developed his own little vocabulary that I like to call "Finnish."  Every time he starts pronouncing a word correctly, I know he is growing up a little bit more.  Since I want to remember every little funny thing he says, I thought I would do a Finnish to English Dictionary.  

skrab -protective crust over a sore or wound

kindle-wax molded around a wick and burned to give light

twomyo/two-my-oh-on or for the day after today

kramer/cray-mer-a box with a lens for taking pictures

monnunenant- structure erected in remembrance

memoyle-something meant to keep remembrance alive

nor-additional amount

ale- pointed metal fastener or 2: sheath at the end of each finger and toe

ale- something sent or carried in the postal system

cannanet- display case or cupboard

metroraya-the public transportation system in the D.C area.  


Here are some of his most popular phrases:

"right der" (sounds like "water")  -Me: "Finn where is your ball?"  Finn: "Right der."

"supa  hot" - Me: "Be careful, it is hot." Finn: "Don't touch. It's supa hot. It 'll burn ya." 

"hurtcha"- Finn (walking down the street): "Don't touch that dog. It'll hutrcha. It'll bite your face."

"oh ank ewe"-  Me: "Here is your breakfast." Finn: "Oh ank ewe so much!"
