Added DiffLines:
* BabyTalk: In the book, Jack will say things like "we knowed" or "I brunged" or "why you don't know" or refer to man and woman as "he and she" like "the he walked up". This is kind of perplexing due to Ma regularly correcting his grammar, watches TV ranging from cartoons to the news and soap operas, and even has a game with Ma where he parrots what he just heard on TV to help with his grammar. The movie largely removes this, mostly keeping Jack referring to objects in Room by noun, Lamp, Rug, Meltady Spoon, etc, as a part of life in Room.
