Nora Word of the Week - Gee'ia


Nora Word of the Week - Gee'ia
Gee'ia in Nora talk, loosely translated, means 'me'. And Nora uses the word a lot. Generally when she uses the word she also points to herself. I'll be looking at ski photos on the computer with Nora in my lap, and she'll go Gee'ia strongly and forcefully a few times pointing at herself. This means she is bored with the ski photos and wants to see photos of herself. Nora loves to look at photos of herself. We'll put a file of family photos on a slideshow loop and every time she sees herself she'll go 'gee'ia' and smile. We worry that she is a little narcissistic, but perhaps she'll end up a model or movie star and support her parents in their old age. Patrick
