Take this banner!
i think that’s just another barrier between english and french. was she speaking english? because around here, it’s normal to call a baby “mama” or “mommy”. and “good night” was just another way of saying “have a nice nap” or such.
i don’t know. i think i sound kind of pretentious here.
Really? I didn’t know that! She was speaking English. Well whaddaya know! That’s another reason why drawing this comic is cool, I get to learn stuff like this all the time :)
Where do you call a baby mommy? We don’t in England, so is it just a Canadian English thing, or do they also do it in America?
I’d like to know, too!
Its an American thing most of our Spanish people call little girls mama mommy or Molly.
Thats really intersting! I was about to say that here in mexico we do call little girls and boys “mama or dady” respectively (i’ve never really thought about it until now since it was so normal)
American here. I’ve never heard this before. The goodnight however makes sense, you say that when wishing someone a s good sleep
I speak English and I still didn’t know that it’s normal to call babies “mama” or “mommy”.
I think she was trying to imitate Margot saying that to you.
That’s totally plausible!
I was going to say that, with “goodnight” meaning “sleep time now”.
I think it’s a Hispanic thing to call little ones “Mami.” Both my girls have gotten it many times over the years, when someone would speak cutely to them in Spanish, calling them “Mami.”
In Farsi sometimes mothers call their children mommy… But not strangers!!! :)))
Even Margot’s looking like, “What the hell was that?”
Is it possible she was hispanic? I’ve heard hispanics refer to children or loved ones as “mami” which sounds a lot like mommy.
J’ai aussi découvert qu’en Turquie on appelle les fillettes “annecim” (maman chérie) et les garçons “babacim” (papa chéri) ce qui serait un équivalent de nos “cocotte” et “coco”… :)
