“K”

“I’m baby”?

Did she mean “I’m busy”?

If so this is messed up.

[-] LaLuzDelSol@lemmy.world 64 points 2 weeks ago

I thought maybe it's "I am, baby"

[-] rumba@lemmy.zip 16 points 2 weeks ago

yeah, auto correct too "i m baby" and made it I'm baby

The missing comma is what makes it mistakable

[-] Chocrates@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

I'm, baby. Still doesn't seem right even if it technically is.

[-] naught101@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I would say it's technically wrong, because the am is where the emphasis sits, and you wouldn't contract an emphasised word.

But yeah, that still seems like the best interpretation of intention in this case.

Yep, it's called a clitic, and you can't put emphasis on it the same way you would if you used the full word

TIL, thanks! Funny word 😂

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

Hope so. That would be far better.

[-] Chocrates@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Me too, I hope

I'm guessing it's supposed to be "I am, baby" (in response to 'are you coming home') but written in a panicked haste.

Anyone thinking she'd have the time or calm to properly spell check before sending when her kid's in danger is delusional.

[-] rimjob_rainer@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 weeks ago

She is a baby. I guess she was on some good stuff.
