One of the most popular comments, by Ram Kumar, reads: 'I'm going to open an ice cream shop and I'll name it Camtono."

Another Facebook user, Sharon Mayor, wrote: "I actually think she's trying to say McDonalds. Maybe that's where she has her ice creams."

Other people shared similar funny stories involving their own children.

Mary Anne Halverson shared: "My son would not say ketchup. He would say yepit. Even when we broke it down just like this little girl. He would say katch up but when we put it together it was YEPIT!"

According to Mayo Clinic, a child begins to imitate speech sounds by the end of 12 months. By this time, a child can start saying a few words, such as "dada", "mama", and "uh-oh."

This is also the time when a child begins to understand simple instructions like "Come here."

A child can say as many as eight to 10 words by the end of 18 months.

By the end of 24 months, the child can normally speak at least 50 words. He or she can use simple phrases, like "more milk". He or she can also begin to follow simple commands and understand simple questions.
