    According to family legend my first word was a double whammy. I was pointing at something that I wanted and my Ma said "Later" and I replied "Later now!"

    Much celebrating ensued and I haven't shut up since.

    You mean rhymed with luck. Look is pronounced differently.

    I have no idea, I'm told I didn't start to speak until I was about three though, and I'm guessing if I was anything then like I am now, my first utterance was probably -

    Seriously?

    I said I was atheist and didn't approve of the concept of the euro.

    My nephew's first word was Dada, followed closely by Mama but I ensured that his third was ****. He used to go round saying "Dada, Mama, ****" all day. When he was a little older he used to call me Uncle ****. His parents were not best pleased with me.

    I believe it was 'gimmie that' or some similarly avaricious utterance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 600 ✭✭✭SMJSF


    I didn't speak until i was about 4 due to hearing problems. I was always pointing to something instead of speaking.

    My mum started calling me E.T when I was about 2..... And still does nearly 20 years later!
