Language Barrier?

I was frustrated with Noah for making us late getting him to school this morning.  No matter how I directed, nudged, reminded, prodded, and clapped my hands like a drill sergeant, he found some way to complicate or delay getting out the door at every turn.  Finally in the car, but totally exasperated, I said, "Noah, however long I had to wait for you to follow directions is how long I am going to make you wait after school before you can play video games. We'll see how you like it."

Noah, sincerely puzzled, said back, "Wike it?  Who's Wikeit?"
