At the end of the fourteenth month, his stock of words is much enlarged. The child plays much in the open air, sees much, and advances in his development; words and sounds are more and more suited to conceptions. He wakes in the night and says _appa_, which means "Give me some drink." The ball he calls _Ball_; flower, _Bume_ (for Blume); cat, _katz_ and _kotz_ (Katze)--what _kalla_, _kanna_, _kotta_ signify we do not know. He imitates the barking of the dog with _auauauau_. He says _teine_ for Steine (stones); calls Braten (roast meat) _paati_ and _paa_, and Brod (bread) the same. If he hits against anything in creeping, he immediately says _ba_ (it hurts). If he comes near a dangerous object, and some one says to him, _ba_, he is on his guard at once. A decided step in advance, at the end of the fourteenth month, is his calling me _Mama_. At sight of me he often cries out, in a loud voice and in a coaxing tone, _ei-mamma!_ just as he calls the nurse _ei-niana_. His father he now calls _Papa_, too, but not until now, although this sound, _papba_, made its appearance in the tenth month, after which time it was completely forgotten. His grandmother, as he can not get beyond the _gr_, is now called simply _grrru_; not until later, _Go-mamma_. _15th Month._--He now says _Guten Tag_ (good-day), but not always at the right time; also _Guttag_. He likes to see pictures, and calls picture-books _ga_ or _gock_, probably because a good many birds are represented in them. He likes to have stories told to him, and to have pictures explained or rather named. "Hinauf" (up) he calls _ueppa_, e. g., when he is to be lifted into his chair. For "unten, hinab" (below, down), he says _patz_. Not long ago he repeated unweariedly _pka, pta_ (pp. 139, 144), _mba, mbwa_. At this period he begins to raise himself erect, holding on by chairs and such things. Of horses he is passionately fond; but he begins to use the word _koppa_, as the Chinese do their words, in various meanings. He calls my large gold hair-pins _koppa_. Perhaps in his imagination they represent horses, as do many other objects also with which he plays. Berries he now calls _mamma_. He has a sharp eye for insects, and calls them all _putika_, from the Esthonian _puttukas_ (beetle), which he has got from the maid. All large birds in the picture-book he now calls _papa_, the word being probably derived from _Papagei_ (parrot), which he also pronounces _papagoi_. The smaller birds are called _gog_ and _gack_. His image in the glass he calls _titta_ (Esthonian designation for child, doll). Does he recognize himself in it (p. 196, _et seq._)?
