I'd like to compile a list of sentences which our #2 managed to construct before she turned 2-years old.
"Thank you"
"You're welcome"
"Here you go"
"Come here"
"Right here"
"Let's go"
"Don't want"
"Bicycle" or "Want play bicycle"
"Play toy"
When her elder sister sat on her chair, she said "No! My chair! Sit here!" as she shows her sister the chair which belongs to her.
"Shower"
"Change diaper" if she wants us to change her diaper and normally after she's done doing her business.
"Comb hair" when she wants us to comb her hair.
"Want to eat"
"Wash hands" when she's done eating.
"Finished" as she pushes her empty plate towards us to wash.
"Dwink" (drink) if she wants us to give her juice / milk.
"Baby toy" as she hands over the baby's toys to the baby in order to keep him occupied.
At times, she would think slightly longer before figuring out the right words to say and sometimes she'll amaze us with the vocabulary she managed to grasp just from hearing us say the words.
We believe that her big sister plays a huge role in #2's language capabilities as #1 always speaks clearly and properly to her sister, as if her sister understands her.
We identified that her linguistic skills is slightly more advanced than when #1 was at her age.
We owe this to our #1 for being such a wonderful big sister and a great role model.
On top of that, #2 also loves sing-alongs (we're able to make out what she's singing as the melody is close to the original song and her pronunciation is quite clear in most of the words) and instantly dances when she hears music playing.
It helps that our #1 loves to sing and dance as well so sometimes they'll sing songs together or dance silly. 😆
