When you were a child, did you call small injuries "boo boos"?!


Question: This is actually a real word. During the spread of the bubonic plague throughout Europe, the boils that covered the body were called "buboes." You can see how easily the word became "boo-boos."

No. I called a scratch or cut a scratch or a cut.

yea lol
boo boos and ouchies

yes I did

uuuh no,

god no

No. It was an "owie".

Yep and so does my 2 year old because it was easy for him to learn and say. He can come to me, hold out his hand and say, "Boo boo," and I know automatically that he hit his hand and that I should kiss it.

I did back then an I still do today

yes i sure did but i always thought that was the product of being born in Tennessee

Yup because that's what my mom called them whenever I got 1.

lol no.

No

yes. why not?
what else can you
call them?

No thats gay

yes

I think I usually said "I have an owy or I have a boo boo"

Nope :)

No, we called them Owies. Owie that hurts! Now I call them oopsies or cat scratches.

yes i did

I called them ouchies. Sounds so much more sophisticated.

no, my mommy did

I can't remember what I called them as a child, but that is what I call them now. I am sure that doctors have a Latin term for them but I bet if you translated from the Latin to English, it would be found to mean "boo boo".
