Nora Evelyn

By the power vested in me by the Department of Linguistics at the University of Michigan* I hereby declare and certify that Nora has produced her first word and that that first word is… “ducky.” Specifically, this ducky:

I am totally not making this up. She also says “dada” [dɑdɑ] and “mama” [mãmã] and ducky actually sounds like “daduh” [dadə].

*disclaimer: the Department of Linguistics at the University of Michigan has, in fact, vested no power in me. I’m lucky to have a key.
