Perci

Ces derniers jours, Kalia a commencé à dire merci, tout d'un coup. La prononciation n'est pas encore tout à fait ça, mais elle a vraiment bien compris quand c'est que ça s'utilise. C'est drôle quand tu ouvres une porte et un petit bout de chou de 26 mois te dit 'merci' (enfin, 'perci').

These last few days, Kalia has suddenly started saying 'perci' (which, for the uninitiated, means thank you). Apart from the vague disappointment of it not coming out in English (though we have one point up on that front with 'apple'), it's quite amazing that she has understood what it means, or at least in what context to use it. It's quite strange having a little 26-month old not-quite-baby say 'thankyou' when you open a door or pass her something!
