When your child starts to speak and understand, does he/she mixed words up or get confused? Jonathan boy mixed up the “me” and “you” pronouns.
I used to say: “Come boy, Mommy carry you.”
When he wants me to carry him, he would say: “Mommy, carry you, please.”

I would ask him: “Jonathan boy, Mommy make milk for you, ok?”
When he wants milk, he says: “Mommy, make milk you.” (Notice too that the “for” is missing here)
When he made this mistake, I would stare at him with a smile. He can read my expression and then corrected himself. But suprisingly he won’t get the “I” and “You” or “Me” and “I” mixed up. He knows when to use them.
Such as: “Daddy, I want egg.” and “Daddy, you want egg?”
“Give me.” and “I want.” instead of “Me want.”
I try to use nouns and names when speaking to him but often forget ’cause we are so used to using pronouns in our daily adult conversation. Nevertheless, it’s so cute sometimes when you hear the mistakes they made.
