A Hitchhiker's Guide To Understanding Eli

Eli runs his mouth 24/7 so in order to get the most out of your conversation with him, we thought we would provide a key for understanding some of his favorite words. Most of them sound like what they are supposed to but others (especially his foray into 3 syllables)... not as much. Here are the ones you might not get unless you heard them a million times a day like us.

eh pane = airplane
heh cop o = helicopter
umbaba = umbrella
wah ma mo = watermelon
ap pee talls = applesauce
bah tee = vacuum
cue come um = cucumber
mo tee bye = motorcycle
mon tore = monitor

Hope this helps!

Aren't they funny?!? I just wrote a similar post about Isabella's language.
