What Was Your First Word?

[Laura M]

I had trouble pronouncing three syllable words when I began speaking. "Moo-cu-ca" was my first word, which was my butchered version of música (music in English). It took my parents a few days to figure that one out.

My parents have a list of words I couldn't pronounce properly when I was younger. I called music moogoose. I was a big music fan, I liked ABBA and Cher. I called Super Trooper "Tuba Tuba" and Donny Osmonds Soldier of Love 'Sha na na'. A towel was called koo root and anytime I met someone else with the same name as me I called them "m'another lawya". Other popular phrases were I wanna go wisch me (take me too), and Amn't I (Aren't I). I still say that. I must have been very hard to understand.

I have no idea what my first words were but my mother has a tape of me singing The Mickey Mouse song when I was around 2. All I hear is my little voice saying over and over very fast M I C K E Y M O U S E!!!
