Nangu-Pangu comes from the Hindi word 'Nanga' which refers to the state of wearing no clothing or being naked. Pangu was later added on to make a cutsey rhyming word for
children. Nangu-pangu is used to speak about
babies and
children about their private parts.
There is nothing sexual about this word, it is used in an affectionate way.
The
baby wasn't wearing any clothes after her bath, her mother was gently patting lotion on her and lovingly calling her a "Nangu-Pangu
baby".
Mother: Please put some clothes on!
Two Year Old: Why?
Mother: Because we have
people coming over, you can't be Nangu-Pangu!
Two Year Old: Why?
Mother: Because I say so!
