1. brathroom - bathroom
2. I hink... - I think
3. NO! - no, thank you, but I appreciate the consideration
4. HEY! - please cease and desist from your current activity, as it is impeding my space
5. what in tah-nation? - What exactly is going on that is causing such a loud hub-bub?
6. what's all the wukus? - A slightly less patient version of the above.
7. bibary - library, where she is known among the gates
8. Yexa - Alexa, as in Cosgrove, the tallest non-adult in Eliza's life, who doesn't mind full sprint hugging.

11. yesh ma'hm - OK, fine, will you please let me go about my day.
12. Missah Dwew - Drew, as in Cosgrove, the tallest adult in Eliza's life, who doesn't mind full sprint discipline.
13. Miss Dwillian - Jillian, the last of the Cosgroves, who is probably more interesting than that particular description, but we'll stick to it none-the-less.
14. Jah!?! - modern derivation of the original 'Duh!?!'
15. bbs room - Eliza's bedroom, named after.... well, we don't know where the name came from.
