pretty sure that all languages are related
What an unfortunate example rasheed
They belong to different language families.
From Middle English tit, titte, tette, from Old English tit, titt, from Proto-Germanic *titt- (“teat; nipple; breast”), from Proto-Indo-European *tata- (“father; parent; nipple”). Cognate with Saterland Frisian Tit, Dutch tiet, dialectal Dutch tet, German Zitze, Titte, Yiddish ציצע (tsitse). Probably related to an original meaning “to suck”. Compare Albanian thith (“to suck, breast, tit”) and teat.
paska is better translation for shit
kakka is something a child would say
not provedly so, it's just a hypothesis

those look more like basic onomatopeya made up from simple phonemes that a baby can use to communicate, see also the use of reduplication, similar to how the word for "mamma" and "pappa" are similar worldwide
same in Spanish
Its interesting because in Japanese, "titi"(乳) means breast too
But that is "chichi".
Its almost as if... Hmmm...
"ti" is pronounced [chi] in Japanese
gatimuti
Babble words, same reason mama and papa or versions thereof are almost universal as vocabs for the closest previous generation relatives, or also , as shitting is something babies do all the time.
