Página 259 de 609 Pesquisa The CASE of ... the Deedio Mystery Robert S. Feld... Like most parents, Karen Muller was excited when her 10-month- old daughter, Lisa, said her first word. She was especially pleased that the word was "Mama." In the next three months, Lisa added more new words: kitty, baba (bottle), Dada, hi, cookie, and bus. Karen waited eagerly for Lisa to begin putting words to- gether, but the baby seemed content with her one-word utter- ances. Then, around 15 months, Lisa added some surprising new words: Mammia, Daddio, Meemia, and Deedio. Karen under- stood that Mammia and Daddio referred to her and Lisa's father, and she thought Meemia might be a reference to Lisa herself, but the new "fancy" labels puzzled her, and Deedio was a complete mystery. Also, Lisa did not use these new words in direct relation to the people they named, but in a seemingly abstract manner. For example, she said "Daddio" when her father was nowhere in sight. Lisa's new words remained puzzling until one day, at about 18 months, as she and Karen were getting ready to go to the park, Lisa pointed to her own shoes and said, “Meemia." Then she pointed to her older brother's shoes and said, "Deedio." Karen re- alized two things instantly: Deedio was Lisa's brother David, and the use of "ia" and "io" endings on the familiar terms for her fam- ily and self indicated ownership. Over the next month, Karen listened carefully to Lisa when she used these words. Daddy was still “Dada" when he was in sight, but Lisa began using two-word sentences, saying things like "Daddio coat" and "Meemia baby" (for her doll).
