My mom does the accent thing, but she never realized she did it til I told her. she said it was so they could understand her, I told her they're not idiots
that is so true about how you speak to babies!!! People need to know this...thanks for putting it out there! If you speak normally, your children will learn to speak much sooner. :)
And about the socks.....that blows my mind....I dunno. U can put them into the wash but they don't come back out!!! lol
Your socks are missing.. It can't be D: It must be.. The washing machine+socks make too much static and forcing another dimension to be formed where peolpe use socks as money... :OOO
Hmm I'd have to disagree with you on this one Iman. Think of it from a different perspective - where you speak a little bit of a different language but aren't fluent, trying to communicate with someone that IS fluent in that language. If they speak exactly as they normally do, it can be very difficult to understand them - the words all seem to mesh together - but if they slow down and use an english accent, it's much easier to work your way through and understand.
I LOVE Reading Rainbow! lol I took high school psych, too (actually it was a college course, so I guess it's college psych 101?) and we learned that Motherese (the term for the way people talk to babies) is actually something they can't help. People just do it. =]P
Also, SO true about the Sock Goblins. It makes no sense. xD
My sociology book called it Parantese, because both the mother and father seems to do the voice. I do it too, it seems to make babies smile more! Which is always cute <3
Yeah i thought i was the only one... Ill go out and but like 4 packs of socks, and like a a couple weeks go by and.. im down to like 7 pairs.. its very frustrating
I miss Reading Rainbow. And I think..................that lil people live in ur dryer and/or washing machine and takes one and uses them as many things. Like an ironing board sheet or a sleeping bag. Or maybe even a laundry bag for their lil clothes. hahaha lol
lol! I don't know Lisa! It's a mystery! The same thing happens to me! Its like the washer or dryer eats them or something, its so strange! lol I bought two brand new packs of socks not that long ago and now I barely even see those socks anymore, its really weird.
Oh, and I've never been to PF Changs before, i've heard really good things about it though. I'm gonna have to check it out soon!
for the language thing, it's because sometimes the person who can't speak English well can only understand what you're trying to say if you say it the way they can say it. for example, my mom doesn't speak English well and she pronounces juice like "ju-cee (2 syllables) when i tell her i want juice in English she doesn't understand what I want but when i say i want ju-cee she gets it.
its true. kids at my moms daycare that dont talk its cuz there parents still say at the age of 2 do u wanna baba? instead of do you want a bottle? LOL
the socks go to a magical sock world that you can only enter by going inside a washer and wash yourself in it then dry yourself in the dryer and if u do something wrong u won't go to it.that's why socks almost never have any pairs
There is no explanation for missing socks in the dryer. Its like the bermuda triangle. And wow, you two are actually thinking of having kids?! im excited for you two!
Can't figure out the Sock dillema, but that baby part you were talking about is right. Cause we talked to my neice normal & she was speaking earlier & better than anyone in her age group.
haha never happened to me that someone took over my horrible dutch accent while speaking english ^^ happens the other way around too (when esmee denters speaks dutch she (probably because of speaking english a lot) sometimes has an 'english accent')
Hey Iman/Lisa, out of interest... in relation to when your videos hit YT, whats the delay on when those vids were actually recorded?? I'm not trolling or anything.. i just thought id ask, because in this vid you're working on the spoof... but the spoof went live like a day or two ago... Cheers.
Ppl do that 'cos they're trying to empathize. They...uhm wait..most don't mean to condescend, just trying to relate (unconsciously). Babies (& animals) are great analogies. Most of the time its comes from a good place. (happens to me in corporate America-Ug) Look, i read Shakespeare as a hobby-love him. My bf is from England and I'm from LA. My English was so clean and poetic the 1st time I met his parents, Shakespeare rose to take notes-HA! Didn't realize til my bf told me. I agree with U tho'
Someone should invent some sort of contraption to keep the socks tied together while they're getting washed/dried. I bet that person would make a fortune...but give me some of the profit of course!
It seems we have lost socks too. hubby says i must llose them from the room to washer. i think 1 of our 6 dogs eat it? i confuse and u. it 4am. cant sleep watching u guys. making me laugh
This is why I no longer care if my socks match. It is impossible to keep up with them so why stress on if they match up. Especially dress socks with a suit. I'll wear green socks with a grey suit or one green and one brown with my blue suit. This will let the sock fairy know that she will never win!!!
lol at Kathleen, I do that too sometimes until I realize, I'm too close to the lappy and that's not good for the eyes lmao
Well I sometimes grab a sock out of the drawer if I'm too lazy to get a dust rag LMAO and so then I end up with unpaired socks and I end up forgetting and throwing the single sock away, then the other one gets washed and it gets thrown away LMAO
I hate it when people talk to babies with baby talk like that it sounds so ignorant lol. I talk to children as equals because that is how I wanted to be treated. The sock thing I have what are called sock savers they are two plastic rings w/ teeth in them attached to another so you pull the socks through when you are done using them and then watch them like that. The thin socks though get holes in them. I have heard safety pins work in the wash but I would think that would make holes too.
hahaha I make fun of my collegues that do that because I travel in the military and anytime there is a person who has been in a specific location for a minute starts trying to, kinda make themselves seem as if they can relate by speaking to the people the same way they are speaking. Wierd
The sock thing is funny...my cousin used to find extra underwear from the laundry room trash in her load because someone in her complex kept messing with her!! LOL
makes me laugh when people say that PF Chang's is a real chinese restraurant ... im glad you didnt say it was :]
I agree with what Iman said in the car about talking like the person you are talking to .. it gets on my nerves ,, i was at school and eating with a few friends at lunch ,.. and these white kids (they werent kidding) they came up to us and said "Herro , you like eat rice ? rice veddy good but bad for body" .. we were like .. "dude ... piss off"
Funny you said the sock thing, just today I couldn't find a matching pair and got really angry. I'm usually an organized person so those things piss me off.
lol @ your baby talking. If you guys had a baby, it would be the silliest kid ever, that can dance and sing like no other. Wait, another MJ!
I love your guy's videos. Lol I agree with the talking thing.. Everyone will try and talk in that persons accent in english thinking that they can still understand them Lmao. oh and The sock thing happens to me all the time..It's weirddddd
that happens to my pencils.
