At 15 months, Zi can say over 20 obvious words/prases such as:
- tatay
- mama
- Ate
- wow
- baby
- apple
- woof
- ewe
- uh-oh
- bop!
- uh-uh (to convey ‘no’..while shaking her head)
- up
- hi
- bye
- dede (filipino word to convey she wants to nurse)
- beep-beep
- yay
- milk (mih)
- there it is (tey-eh-ye)
- tito
- huh?
- shhh!
- cheese
She also has a picture/word book given to her from tita cherms and she can use her pointer finger to show me where objects are if I ask her. For example, if I ask her where the fish is, she’ll point to its corresponding picture.
She responds so well and can understand when I make requests. I can even ask her, “where’s my iPhone, Zi?” and she’ll grab it from the end of the room and give it to me. Promise, I never consciously taught her it was an iPhone.
