Apparently, I was quoted as using the word "etc." (correctly, I might add) at the age of 22 months, and there is documented evidence of this! I can't say I remember this, but the evidence is certainly there, and I'll happily take credit for it. My mother gave my sister the baby book that she used for my sister during her first month of life, and there are some quotes from me contained therein.
I guess my life as a grammar nazi started very early indeed.
(Tip of the cap to my sister---and I'll spare her by not posting my other comments that went along with the "etc.")
