Reversed, a little.

Elsy's vocabulary and ability to communicate has been growing in leaps and bounds over the past year, but something that she tends to do a lot is to reverse certain words in phrases or syllables in words. One of her most common phrases is to say "got for" instead of "forgot". Daddy, you got for my gloves. Or saying "is it" instead of "it is". I don't think is it time for baht baht (bathtime). I do subtly correct her by answering with the proper word or phrase, but I know sometimes people will hear one thing and say another assuming that they are the same. I am not worried, but it was interesting to hear.
