"PeKaba"??!! Yup, not only coz been super long since I last updated but more so coz dat lil Arissa mentioned dat phrase quite a few times last weekend. I was happy & amazed. Happy coz she learned yet another phrase...altho its in BM. Amazed @ d way, she pronounces it as one word- cute yet funny manner "pekaba"!
Her Eng. vocab is much lesser besides d usual words of CAR, PARK, KEAT (Cat), UMMY (Mummy), BB (Baby)...dats bout all I can think of @ d top of my head currently. Worried coz wanna make sure she picks up Eng, since BM quite an easy language to pick up especially once they enter school.
Nways, hope all of u are "KabaBaik"...hehe ;p
tod...
ReplyDeletei wanted yayah to learn english at home as well...tapi hmmm.....now she speaks malay fluently, english limited to few words, and arabic lagiiiiilah limited to fewer words.....
kalau you nak betul2 englishkan dia, you have to use no other language but english with her (that's a bit difficult for me coz i use malay with my other half so she knows i can speak malay)...
kalau you nak tau, kawan kita si Dacky Dack, telah berjaya meng-englishkan anak dia.....he speaks no malay......tapi that is also becoz both dack and hubby speaks english, plus dack's in laws pun dont speak malay.......her smaller bro in law mmg langsung tak pandai BM...which is also not good as we're living in malaysia.....
whatever it is, dont worry too much about it......kalau kita pikir balik, kita dulu pun (well in my case lah) tak diajar in fully english at home...yet i can safely say my english is bolehlah survive.....
enjoy her while she's learning to talk...
