Our Bilingual Baby
Wow... Noori is translating things. Two things that have happened in the past couple of days.
Me to Iajia: Bajeme el jabon antibacterial para limpiar la trumpeta, no? Por favor.
Noori to me: Cleaning the trumpet, mommy?
Noori's two year old neighbor is crying outside our door (doors are right next to each other) Another child tells his mother: Emmanuel se cayo!
Noori, who is paying full attention while eating a snack at the table, turns to me and says: Mommy, Manuel fall down!
So he has been translating Spanish to English to me. I haven't noticed if he has translated any English to Spanish. Though he has less opportunity to do that.
