- (Kate) What are you saying to her?
- I was just making conversation.

:32:15
Saying it was a sewing card.
:32:18
Does that mean that to her?
:32:20
Oh, no. She won't know what spelling is
till she knows what a word is.

:32:27
The Cap'n says it's like
spellin' to a fence post.

:32:32
Does he, now?
:32:34
- Is it?
- No.

:32:36
It's how I watch you talk to the baby.
:32:39
- The baby?
- Any baby.

:32:41
It's gibberish. Grown-up gibberish.
Baby-talk gibberish.

:32:45
Do they understand
one word of it to start?

:32:49
Somehow they begin to if they hear it.
I'm letting Helen hear it.

:32:53
Other children are not... impaired.
:32:58
Oh, there's nothing impaired in that head.
It works like a mousetrap.

:33:05
And... when will she learn?
:33:11
Maybe after a million words.
:33:15
Perhaps you'd like to read Dr Howe
on the question of words.

:33:29
I should like also
to learn those... letters, Miss Annie.

:33:37
I'll teach them to you tomorrow morning.
:33:40
That makes only half a million each.
:33:44
- It's her bedtime.
- Yes.

:33:50
Ow!
:33:51
I'm sorry.
