STOP talking like a baby!

كف عن التحدث كالأطفال في اللغة الإنجليزية

Hewo.

مرحبا

My name's Wonnie.

اسمي روني

What's your name?

ماهو إسمك؟

What?

ماذا؟

My name's Ro-...

اسمي رو ...

What are you?

ماذا؟

My name's Ronnie.

اسمي روني

What's going on?

ماذا الذي يجري؟

I'm going to teach you something today that is very, very important, especially for the ladies.

سوف أعلمكم شي مهم جداً اليوم، خصوصاً للسيدات

اممم

Sometimes I know you try and be very cute.

بعض الاحيان اعلم انك تحاول آن تكون لطيف

Cool.

مرح

But there comes a point where you have to stop trying to be cute and actually act like

ولكن احيانا يجب عليك ان توقف محاوله التمثيل أنك لطيف

a proper woman, whatever that means.

امرأة مثالية، مهما كان ذلك يعني

It's up to your interpretation.

على حسب تفسيرك انت!

So I'm going to teach you about what's called "Baby Talk".

لذا، سوف أدربك اليوم عن ما يسمى "كلام الطفل"

So, baby talk is what I was just doing to you in the camera.

حسنا، حديث الطفل هو ما كنت افعله لك في الكاميرا. "الخبال الي كانت تسويه باول الفيديو "

It has to do with your facial expression-your eyes are bigger, you're smiley-and your intonation,

يجب ان تفعله مع تعابير وجهك - عينيك أكبر مبتسم ، والتجويد الخاص بك،

as well as the vocabulary you lose... Use.

وكذلك المفردات التي تخسرها ... اعني التي تستخدمها . "ما في شبه بالنطق بس شكلها تستعبط "

So, when it is very, very good and fun and acceptable to use baby talk is if you are

لذلك، يكون جدا جدا جيد وممتع ومقبولة ل استخدام حديث الطفل هو إذا كنت

talking to a baby, yes.

تتحدث مع طفل، نعم.

Children, not so much.

الأطفال، وليس ذلك بكثير.

There comes a point where your precious baby will become a child, and you need to actually

هناك نقطة حين طفلك سيصبح كبير، وستحتاج فعلا الى

start to speak to them like a normal person.

التحدث مع اطفالك كشخص طبيعي "قصدها توقف تتكلم معاهم مثل الجهال وتكلمهم مثل الناس"

Not like a dragon, but like a normal person.

ليس كالتنين, لكن كشخص طبيعي

They grow out of baby talk.

لقد كبروا على كلام الأطفال "يعني صاروا كبار لا تكلمهم جنهم جهال"

Also-I do this-we talk to our pets like they're babies.

ايضاً-انا اقوم بهذا- نحن نتحدث مع حيواناتنا الاليفة مثل ألاطفال

Oh, doggy want a boney?

اووو,كلبي يريد عظمة

Hello, kitty-cat, what's going on?

اهلا, القطة-كيتي, ماذا يجري

And the cat's like: "Ah, this is great."

والقطه مثل : اوه هذا عظيم!

Dogs and cats probably think we're a little crazy, too, and they're like: "What?

الكلاب والقطط على الاغلب يعتقدون اننا مجانين ايضا ويقولون : ماذا!

No, but I'm cute though."

لا ، ولكنني اعتقد اني لطيف

Cool.

رائع

"Give me the bone. Yeah, I'm cute. Give me the bone."

اعطني العظام ، حسنا انا لطيف اعطني العظم "قصدها الكلاب تقول جذي "

So, if you're talking to a baby or a young child, or a pet - cool.

حسنا ، اذا تكلمت ل طفلك او طفلك المراهق او حيوانك اللطيف رائع

Also, if you're talking to your partner, not in class, but your partner, so your boyfriend,

ايضا، اذا تحدثت الى شريكك ليس الذي في الصف ، شريكك ، صديقك

your girlfriend, your husband, your wife, your other boyfriend, okay

صديقتك، زوجك،زوجتك ، صديقك الاخر

- you will-I do-use baby talk.

انت سوف ، انا اتحدث معهم بطريقه حديث الطفل

This makes us seem cute.

هذا يجعلك نوعا ما لطيف

Awesome.

رائع

But we don't want to seem cute at a job interview.

ولكن انت لا تريد ان تكون لطيف نوعا ما في مقابله عمل

We don't want to go: "Hi. I'm Ronnie-wonnie. How are you today? He-he-he."

نحن لا نريد ان نذهب : مرحبا انا روني اوني كيف حالك اليوم ؟ هه هه هه

You're not going to get the job, and people might think you're a little strange.

انت لن تحصل على وظيفه ، والناس تقابلك تعتقد انك غريب الاطوار

So baby talk is good for three people, three situations.

حسنا ، حديث الطفل جيد ل ثلاث حالات

Other than that, don't use it.

اكثر من ذلك لا تستخدمها

You probably know some words that are baby talk or the intonation, but maybe there are

انت ربما تعلم بعض كلمات الاطفال او ترتيلها لكن هناك

some words that will surprise you.

بعض الكلمات التي ستفاجئك

The number one are...

رقم واحد انها

One and two or the top ones are "mommy" and "daddy".

واحد واثنين الاولى هي مومي و دادي

So, I hear a lot of grown men say: "My mommy works in the mall."

اسمع الكثير من الرجال البالغين يقولون : مومي "امي " تشتغل في المجمع

And girls say: "My... My daddy gave me a horse."

وفتيات يقولون : دادي "ابوي " عطاني حصان

Okay, maybe your daddy did give you a horse, but please, ladies and gentlemen who are adults:

حسنا : يمكن ابيك اعطاك"اهداك" حصان ، لكن من فضلكم ياايها النساء و الرجال

"mommy" and "daddy" are children's words.

مامي و دادي كلمات اطفال

If a grown man says: "I love my mommy", we're going to think some strange things are happening

اذا رجل كبير قال : احب مامي ، نحن سنعتقد ان هناك شي غريب يحدث

with you and your mommy.

معك و مع امك

As well, ladies, if you say: "My daddy is coming to see me tomorrow night",

وكذلك الفتيات اذا قلتن دادي سوف ياتي غدا ليراني غدا في المساء

we're getting the wrong idea of what you're doing with your parents.

سناخذ فكره سيئه عن ما يحدث بينكم وبين والديكم

So: "mommy" and "daddy" are only for children.

حسنا ، مامي و دادي كلمات فقط للاطفال "كبير لا تقولهم يرحم امك"

What you're going to say is...

مالذي سوف تقوله هو

Do you know?

هل تعلم؟

"Mom, mom, dad", good.

امي ،امي ،ابوي ، حسنا

We shorten this to: "mom".

"تعلمكم شلون تنكتب"

If you're learning English in the UK, they spell it: "mum", but they spell it with a "u".

ان كنت تتعلم اللهجه البريطانيه انهم يكتبونها mum مع u

And "dad"...

والاب

Sorry. "Daddy" becomes "dad".

اسفه دادي تصير داد"ابي"

This is casually how we talk about our mom and dad.

هكذا كيف نتحدث مع امهاتنا و ابهاتنا

More formal...

اكثر رسميه

Again, this is baby talk.

مره اخرى هذا حديث الاطفال

More formal we can say: "mother" and "father".

لاكثر رسميه نستطيع قول mother و father

So, it doesn't really matter which one you use, "dad" or "father", "mom" or "mother",

حقا ما يهم شنو تختار dad او father mom او mother

just please don't say "mommy" and "daddy".

بس من فضلك لا تقول مامي و دادي

It makes you sound like you're a little princess or that you have a very strange relationship

صوتك يصير مثل اميره صغيره او او انك تملك علاقه غريبه

with your mother and father.

مع امك و ابيك

Yeah, not too good.

حسنا ، هذا ليس جيد

So, "father" is formal and so is "mother".

حسنا father و mother رسميات

All right. When I first started the video, I said: "My name is Wonnie."

حسنا ، اول ما بديت الفيدو قالت اسمي وني

Well, that's not my name.

حسنا هذا مو اسمي

My name's Ronnie, but children have a hard time pronunci-...

امي روني ، لكن الاطفال احيانا يصعب عليهم النطق

[Laughs] Pronunciating, like me.

{تضحك} مثلي

They have a hard time saying certain letters.

"ممرات ما ينطقون الحروف عدل"

For example, "r".

مثلا حرف الراء

Do you have a hard time saying "r" as well?

هل مرات ما تقدر تنطق حرف الراد؟

Cool. See? You're learning.

رائع، انظر قاعد تتعلم

"R" is very difficult for babies to say, so don't feel bad.

الراء شوي صعب حق الاطفال ، لذلك لا تشعر باليآس

They're learning how to get the "r" out.

انهم يتعلمون نطقه

So, instead of saying "r", they're going to say "w".

لذلك يقولون و بدل الراء

So, you will hear in TV shows, when people say:

حسنا > انت سوف تسمع بالتلفاز عندما الناس يقولون

"Aw, you're just a widdle boy".

انك فقط طفل صغير

"Widdle" is a replacement for "l" in this case or "little".

little = widdle

So, we would say: "little", but they say: "widdle".

حسنا نبي نقول little لكنا نقول widdle

"Oh, just a widdle boy."

اوه هو فقط طفل صغير

If you can't say the "r", it might sound like: "riddle", but you say: "widdle".

"تعلمك شلون تنطق"

I used to do this, when I was a child I could not say "r", so I said "d", I said: "budder".

"تعلمك شلون تنطق"

I called my brother: "my budder".

انادي اخي "تعلمك شلون تنطق"

Now, "butter" in the pronunciation that you have here sounds like the delicious spread

you put on toast and vegetables.

حسنا اضع التوست و الخضروا

So I would say: "Where's my butter?"

حسنا اقول اين هي الزبده

Butter is delicious, so maybe I just really wanted butter, my parents got confused.

الزبده لذيذه ، حسنا ربما انا فقط اريد زبده ، والداي يصبحون حائرين

Probably that's what happened.

ربما هذا ما يحدث

So, you'll also notice that in English pronunciation, in American and Canadian pronunciation at least,

في اللهجه الامريكيه و الكنديه

if it's a "t" sound we usually sound it like a "d".

ال t تنطق d

So, in Canada and America we don't say: "butter", we say: "budder".

في كندا وامريكا ما نقول butter نقول budder

And we don't say: "little", we say: "liddle".

ما نقولelittlr نقول liddle

That'll be another lesson, though.

ذلك سوف يصبح فيديو ثاني "قصدها بتنزل الشرح بفيديو ثاني"

We'll get back to that.

لنعود لذلك

So, how do we make baby talk?

شلون نتكلم بطريقه حديث الطفل

How do we make baby words?

كيف نتحدث ب كلمات الاطفال

We have two ways to do it.

عندنا طريقتين

One of them is we double the sounds.

الاولى ندبل الصوت

So: "poo" is...

حسنا بووو هي

Oh, I'm very good at drawing poo.

اوه اناساريم ال بو

Maybe you say: "number two".

ربما نقول رقم اثنين

You can call it also "shit" in slang.

وتستطيع قول **

So, as an adult if you wanted to, you could say: "shit", some people get mad at that word.

كبالغ اذا ارتد ، تستطيع قول ** ، بعض الناس لا تحب قولها

You can say: "number two", or you can say: "poo".

تقدر تقول رقم اثنين او تقدر تثول بو

But for children, we double it, we say: "poo-poo".

للاطفال ندبل الكلمه نقول بو بو

So you will hear maybe parents saying to the baby: "Do you have to go poo-poo?

حسنا انت تسمع اباء يقولون ل طفلهم هل سوف تفعل بو بو

Do you have to...?

هل سوف تقعل

Did you make a poo-poo in your...?"

هل فعلت بو بو في ..

The baby's probably like: "I just shat myself, mom.

الطفل ربماا يقول : انا فقط فعل ** على نفسي يا امي

Can you change my diapers, please?"

هل تستطيع تغير حفاضاتي ؟

Also we have: "pee-pee".

وايضا لدينا بي بي

Okay? Pee-pee is urine.

بي بي هي **

So you can say: "Oh, excuse me. I have to pee."

لذلك تستطع قول اعذرني علي ان ات***

Very slang.

عاميه جدا

"I have to use the toilet."

علي ان استخدم الحمام

Or we say "number one".

او نقول رقم واحد

So to make this an adult word, we just take off the second word.

نسخدمها في كلام الكبار ، لنذهب للكلمه التاليه

One of my favourites, always makes me giggle is "bum-bum".

-

I think when I was a kid my mom said "bum-bum" a lot.

-

I know she said "bumbaleerie", which is even too funny for me to say.

-

"Bum-bum" is the ass.

-

It's your ass.

-

It's... I don't even know another polite way to say it.

-

You can say: "bum", but for children we say: "bum-bum" and it's funny.

-

In slang, we say: "ass".

-

So you can say to someone: "Hey.

-

Nice bum-bum."

-

And they're like: "Thank you." Okay?

-

Don't be rude.

لا تكن قليل ادب

Be cute.

كن لطيف

Then we have a boy part and we have the girl part.

-

So we for some reason do not want to tell children that they have a penis.

-

We call it a "wee-wee".

-

Mm-hmm.

-

So you might hear someone say...

-

A little boy might say: "I went pee-pee with my wee-wee."

-

And you're like: "That's cool, kid. Awesome."

-

I just took a piss.

-

And then the girl part, the vagina, of course we could not tell the children it's a vagina,

-

some people might call a "woo-woo".

-

Woohoo.

-

Not too sure where the "woo" came in, but I've also seen things on the internet where

-

they are called minis,

-

like Minnie Mouse.

-

Very strange things that I've seen on the internet

-

about words...

-

For the lesson.

-

I was researching about the lesson about what words we use for children for vaginas, I promise,

-

and I'm making a video about it.

-

We also have this expression...

-

We have expressions that we use.

-

We say: "Oopsie daisy!

-

Oopsie daisy!"

-

So if you have a child and your child falls over or you drop something, and you don't

-

want to say: "Shit", people will say: "Oopsie daisy."

-

As we get older, we just say: "Shit" or "Oops".

-

So, if you want to be not as slang as Ronnie is, you can just say: "Oops".

-

"Oopsie daisy" is very childish.

-

So when we talk about this, we don't want to seem like a child.

-

We want to seem like mature adults.

-

Seem like, yeah.

-

Okay.

حسنا

"Jammies", oo, I like this word.

-

Put on your jammy-jammies.

-

Jammies are the baby or the childish word for PJs.

-

Now, you might say: "I don't get it, Ronnie, what are PJs?"

-

What do you think PJs, p-jammies, pajamas.

-

Woohoo. So, the clothes that we wear at nighttime to go to bed, we call them...

"تعبت "

For children we call them jammies.

"تعبت "

In short form we call them "PJs" and the long word is "pajamas".

"تعبت "

When you jump into your beddy-bye with your jammies, you are going to beddy-bye.

"تعبت "

So, "beddy-bye" is your bed or it's bedtime.

"تعبت "

And the other way that we make words are we simply add a "y" to some existing words.

"تعبت "

So, you've got your jammies on, you're in your beddy-byes, and you need your blankey.

"تعبت "

"Blankey" is the child's word for blanket.

"تعبت "

You might see children with a blankey, and it's their security blanket, but they call

"تعبت "

it "blankey" or "baba" sometimes.

"تعبت "

Depends on the age of the child.

"تعبت "

Children really like animals, but they can't...

"تعبت "

I guess they just can't say "horse", so they say: "horsey" or "doggy".

"تعبت "

Now, we say this sometimes.

"تعبت "

We say: "kitty" or they say "kitty", and they say "ducky".

So maybe you're...

"تعبت "

Someone you know has a rubber ducky-quack, quack-and there's a song about a duck.

"تعبت "

It's amazing.

"تعبت "

Can you quack?

"تعبت "

Can you quack like a duck?

"تعبت "

So, the way that we make the words cute is we add a "y" to them.

"تعبت "

We usually use it with animals, I don't know why.

"تعبت "

So, very important to understand that it's okay to use these childish words,

"تعبت "

but you have to know when to use them, talking to children, talking to dogs or animals.

"تعبت "

"Hey, look at the doggy."

"تعبت "

The dog's like: "That's a duck." Okay?

"تعبت "

And if you're speaking to your partner.

"تعبت "

It's cool.

هذا رائع

Please be careful, don't use them in job interviews, don't use them when you first meet people

رجاء كن حذر ، لا تستخدم هذه الكلمات في مقابلات االعمل او حين تقابل الناس لاول مره

because you will seem very childish and that's not cool.

لان هذا يبدو طفولي جدا و ليس لطيف

Okay?

حسنا

Beddy-byes for Wonnie.

-

Bye-bye.

مع السلامه
