Idk man. There's this 3yr old girl that's a child of one of our family's friends. She's pretty expressive with her vocabulary. Like i can have full blown conversations with this girl without dumbing much down, and i think that might be due to her parents' pedanticalness.

Pedanticness is a noun that is considered obsolete and was only used in the mid-1600s.

I am only giving you a hard time bc (1) it's funny, all the more so bc (2) you are the police of these matters! :-D
