"Mommy"

"Mommy" is an informal, affectionate term used by children to address their mother. It often expresses closeness, love, and tenderness. While "mom" or "mother" are more formal terms, "mommy" typically conveys a sense of endearment and developmental innocence, as children learn to speak. Its usage can vary culturally and personally, but it generally reflects a child's direct, personal connection with their mother during early childhood.
