Vaibhav supporting his brother...

Today Karthik was taking the Magic car / Cart and hitting it on the walls, cupboards and bed. I told him many times not to do that. I finally lost patience and started scolding him. Vaibhav began to call me "Amma, illi noodu.. illi noodu..."[amma, see here ..]  he went on non-stop. He didn't stop till I looked at him and then saw what he was pointing at. He was pointing at blank wall. I asked "Eeen iidhe alli?" [what is there ?]. Vaibhav continued "Amma.. illi noodu.. illi noodu". I told Vaibhav "alli ennu illa..". Vaibhav continue "amma.. alli gode noodu"!!!!![amma see wall there]. I then realized he just wanted to take my attention away from Karthik. Wow!!


Karthik's Englishing..

Maid had buttoned Karthik till the neck. So, I unbuttoned Karthik's collar button, with the intent of making him feel more comfortable. He didn't like it, he immediately got angry and said "shall I tell appa". I innocently asked him, what will he tell appa...He replied in his broken english, "I will tell appa, that you are biching the cover" [Biching = removing. bich is remove in kannada, so he added "ing" to it.]

Police station

Karthik sometimes just surprises me with this answers.

Maid was feeding him. Since, he has this habit of keeping food in his mouth without chewing she kept on telling him, chew... chew... chew. At one point Karthik got fedup and angrily told her
"Ninu hinge maadre, police station ge kals  bidthini" [If you keep doing this, I will send you to police station].
My maid responded "Nanu, Alli hoogi nanu eenu maadli" [What should I do going to police station].
Karthik instantly replied "Nin eenu maad beda alli. Police ee ninage maadthare" [You don't do anything there Police will do to you].

I just couldn't hold myself back for more, I burst out laughing.

I continued, I asked Karthik, "Police een maadthare?" [What will police do?]
He responded "Police hodithare" [Police will beat].
