"ah yea!"

one of my worst fears has just been realised. the bean has got a bad case of oz-ilitis.

our little neanderthal doesn't know how to enunciate properly yet, and some of her speech sounds decidedly aussie.

to wit: "ah yeaaa!" (deployed e.g. whenever she finds something she's been asked about), "yea" (instead of 'yes'), "nah" (instead of 'no').
