Saturday night went shopping at Jusco, bought JS a new denim jacket. She loves it so much and refuse to take it down.
Next day went outing, let her wear it again. But as kepala angin as she always does, she doesn’t like it anymore.
JS: Mummy, why you buy this jacket for me
ME: Nice what..
JS: I don’t want lah
ME: You ask daddy and kakak nice or not
JS: Daddy, daddy, my jacket nice or not?
DH: Nice
JS: (not sastify..turn around to the maid) Kaaaak….ini jatkut nice or not?
Wonder how she translate the word jacket to jatkut…. make us LTROF. Eventhough the maid speaks english to the kids, but ever since JS started school, very often I heard her saying a word or two in Malay to the maid. Eg air tumpah, pecah, patah, bb kencing, hujan, marah, bola, berak, susu are common words she used.

Hehehe. Thats really funny. She’s doing her own translation. It DOES sound a bit like a malay word for jacket doesn’t it?
