Words that mean more than one thing

DS says "babi" (like "Bobby") a lot, which currently means button, breakfast, and vitamins. Interestingly, it does not mean "baby," which he says just fine.

Any words that mean more than one thing to your toddler?

    Wah wah is water, yogurt and marker oddly.

    For grapes she says O?! Don't even know why that means grape. But she does the same for blueberries and strawberries.

    She has cropped up with some really random words recently and gets PISSED when I don't understand what she wants. How the hell am I supposed to know O means grape kid?

    @nesenotes Dagny has done this too! She screams a word at me but I have NO clue what it means! It drives me crazy & pisses her off.

    Oh also she says "up" when she wants up or down.

    Zachary started using "up" to mean down today also.

    Yes! The word "apple" means: apple, orange, grape, olive, blueberry, carrot, and pretty much any round food.

    "Apple" means banana here, which is super confusing and took me a while to figure out. Apples, avocados, lemons, pretty much any remotely round fruit or vegetable is "ball", and he expects to pick them all up and throw them across the grocery store as such.

    Bah (with an upwards inflection at the end so everything sounds like a question) means ball, block, lunch box, bento box and yes.

    PupPup means any animal that he wants to pet.

    He says uh-oh-what a lot.  That's our fault though.  DS: Uh uh! Us: Uh oh what?

    He says "Hugga" for help or if he needs help. We joke "the Hugga is a lie" because he rarely ever gives a hug when he says Hugga.
