learning the language

[deird1]

Kidlet Primus has picked up on the fact that you "hammer" with a hammer, and "mop" with a mop, and so forth.

He keeps picking lemons and asking if we can go to the kitchen and "lemon the lemon" (juice it, in fact). And this morning he told me we should go outside and "frisbee the frisbee".

He's rather adorable.

The way kids learn language is so fascinating, and one reason is that their mistakes are so logical. They understand the rule, but they don't know the exceptions (irregular verbs, for instance). It's adorable - and amazing.
