For those with talkers, does your fids have problems with S's, as in kiss?

Baby says more like kif kif *click click click* kif kif. Though this is a fairly new phrase.

Also. he sounds odd with the ch sound in Peaches. If you know french you will relate... he like... swollows the 'ch' sound though the word is clear.

Just curious.

Chooky and Chuckles can say their names and the 'ch' is quite clear in their pronunciation.

He sounds sorta like Popeye in the way he says CH's.

(Peach*swollow*gis)

Thanks Jade... perfect examples!

I can't wait til Baby starts speaking so i may include my knowledge in these types of posts!! I'm working with her...HARD!!

Prinny has some trouble with the "S" sounds...

Dani

neither of them will say anything other than their own names so I'm not sure if they can pronounce 's'. I have noticed though that chuckles calls himself 'chuckle' but i mostly call him chucky or chuck so i kinda thought this was why. Maybe he can't make an 's' sound?

the only words Gina ever said were come 'ere & good parrrot ... and she worked those in between IRN screams ... but those were fine, too, as she cooed mostly ... if i wuz near her, she wuz cooing ... Willie's just started talking in the last few months ... he learned alot from Gina, but i've taught him some ... his vocabulary right now consists of: step uuup (really southern accent .. hehehe); purty Will-Will; good parrrrrrot goo parrrr parrrrrrottttttttt parrrrrrotttttttt; he seems to get "hung up" on that "r" thang sometimes ... he'll be in here yackin it up & he sez "parrrrrrrrot, parrrrrr, parrrrrro ... really low ... then, PARRRRRRRRROT, PARRRRRRRRROT, PARRRRRRRRROT!!" roflmao! i've a feeling that he'll be saying "hello!" very soon, as that's one of Max's favourite words!! only difference is that Willie will NOT speak when a human is present!! soon as you leave the room, he starts yacking ... and hubby will try to tip-toe to the bird-room door to catch him talking, but Willie hears him when he's about 2 feet from the door & just STOPS! silly feller!! haven't had the "ch" & "s" troubles ... Willie's "step uuup" is VERY clear.

luv,

Wren
