J (aged 4): Dammit!
Me: Oh, sweetie. We shouldn't say that word. That's not a nice word to say. I know you might have heard me say it before, but I shouldn't say it and neither should you.
[days pass]
Me: Guys, be careful with that toy, or you could damage it.
J: Mom! You no say "dammit"!!
Me: No, I said "damage". It means to break or hurt something.
[the next day]
J: Dammit!
Me: Hey, what did we talk about.
J: No, Mom, I just say "damage".
