“K”
“I’m baby”?
Did she mean “I’m busy”?
If so this is messed up.
I thought maybe it's "I am, baby"
yeah, auto correct too "i m baby" and made it I'm baby
Ahh.. That clears it up.
Isn't I'm literally "I am"?
The missing comma is what makes it mistakable
I'm, baby. Still doesn't seem right even if it technically is.
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 😂
Hope so. That would be far better.
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.
She is a baby. I guess she was on some good stuff.
