Language Patterns At Home

Hello, everyone! 

I am currently studying about language patterns at home, specifically about words created within the context of your family. I am interested to know how words are formed within a home and what circumstances are attached for this pattern to occur. 

Your responses in this survey would help me confirm some of my hypotheses, and they could serve as my primary sources for a personal linguistics study I am working on. If you may answer the following questions as accurate as possible, I would greatly appreciate it. Feel free to answer in any language you feel comfortable with.

Diós mabalós!

Are there any words in your language that you use at home and only you and your family can understand? *
It can be an original word you created or an existing word with an entirely different usage.
If yes, can you write down the lexicons, their translation/definition, and their origin? *
Example: nama - meaning mama - from "nasan ka mama"
Do you still use these words today? *
What do you think are the reasons why you created or used those words?
Does it arise from a specific need to name an unknown thing? Does it come from an inside joke or a funny memory?
What is/are your mother tongue? *
