speaking "phoenix-ese"

here are several words that I currently say that make me stand out from the rest...
"tracticture"=motorcycle
"bonk-bonk"=anything hurt. ex. crashed car, a building falling apart, a hurt on my body...
"buntons"=buttons
"kala"= convenience store (called bakala in Arabic)
"salama"=goodbye in Arabic

(to be continued...as soon as mama remembers some more)...

This is sweet.

Some of my kiddo's are:

Nana (banana).

Mow (mom ???).

Booooo (book).

Socks (shoes).

Who can figure it out, really.

But it's funny!
