As a child, I had books the way other children had, I dunno, play dates or whatever they have. So I had a pretty impressive vocabulary for a three-year-old.
And my aunt, see. The same one that hates me now and tried to lead a mass exodus at my wedding.
I'm pretty sure this is the one that started it all.
She went through boyfriends on a quarterly basis, and one day she brought the new one to NY on a visit with my mother. He was news to me, man.
"You're not [Johnny Whatsisname!]" I said to the boyfriend.
Turning to my aunt, I announced, "You're promiscuous!"
....Okay, quite possibly, for this to be funny, you have to have met my aunt. But I was three. And it was my aunt.

Father Wisdom (I wish I was making up his name) used that word a lot in religion class.

I apparantly referred to my aunt's boyfriend-she-was-living-with as her husband more than once, as I had NO IDEA couples could live together without getting married, and I don't think my parents were that eager to set me straight.
