In Chapters 6-8 of Frindle, there are some key events that take place that are starting to shape the story. We first learn that when Nick was a baby, he used the word “gwagala” to mean music since he didn’t yet know how to speak properly. This leads to the creation of the word “frindle” when Nick is in 5th grade.
Think of something that you used to use a different name for when you were younger (or maybe still do). If you can’t remember, ask someone at home if they can remember any. Explain why you think that you used that word instead of the “real” one.

A word i say now is yogert for yoga. I say yogert because I think it is funnyer, also use the word SK8ing not skateing. I say SK8ing because it is easyer to spell.

When I was little I would say doga for dog. I think I used doga instead of the real word because I bet somebody told me the real word but I forgot it, and just said doga I was of one letter off.
