In German, they say "winke winke" which means wavey, wavey or wave by-byes. You certainly wouldn't find that in any dictionary. On the other hand, the mini-movies with real live children are more interesting from a linguistic perspective. They speak baby talk.

When my son was a fan of the show, I honestly thought the Teletubbies just squeaked and made noises. It wasn't until one day that the captions had been left on and I read them that I realized the Teletubbies were actually talking, in English, no less! After that, if I really paid attention, I could make out their words. The fact that Teletubbies didn’t teach initial language skills does not surprise me.
