Anyone elses LO's favourite word "Ta"? - Page 2

Avery's favorite word is up. I would rather it was some version of Thank You.

We have started with the "no" this week. It still sounds very cute in her little baby voice. Probably won't in 3 months time.

Ava used to do the same thing! Its really cute. She now only says ta when she's being given something and not the other way around. I tried teaching her thank you but she refuses to repeat it.

Millicent is the same, not sure it's her fave word but she uses it alot but only when needed if that makes sense. Although like your lo she says it more when she passes me something rather when I give her something, but I find it so cute and i'm happy she's got manners so to speak. The other morning she was brushing her teeth and when she was finished she handed it to me saying 'ta' so I put it away and said thank you and she clapped lol.

I really hate the word 'ta'. I never use it and I taught them to say thank you from the start. Before my daughter could say it properly, it sounded like she was saying 'Q' but I know what she meant and with my son it was more of a 'sankoo'.

At nursery a lot of the staff say ta and she always corrects them and tells them its thank you.

Its just one of my pet hates, I really dislike hearing toddlers saying ta.

I think 'ta' is a regional thing, even adults say it in Yorkshire, me included depending on who I'm speaking to. Alfie said 'ta' when he was younger but as his speaking has improved he's picked up 'thank you'.

'Ta' used to be his favourite word but its now 'no'.

Hehe, Paige is the same. She says "aw dun" after every bite of food she takes, and puts her hands out too... Im like no, you still have some silly billy :P

No, dd's favourite is "go"

Which I (stupidly) taught her... As in "ready, steady, go"

So now she thinks "go" makes things happen. So if she wants more fruit, or to find her dolly or put her shoes on - she shouts "go"

Our life is literally "go, go, go"!!!

Haha! She could say go and you have no idea what she wants?! Shed be like "mummy go! go go go!" Lol :P

Luckily she usually points to what she wants at the same time! But you've added just the right amount of desperation
