FROGANDHISWIVESПрочтите африканскую сказку, но прежде запомните три основные формы встретившихся в ней неправильных глаголов.
Once there lived a Frog who had two wives. His first wife lived in Ndumbi and the second wife lived in Ndala. He himself lived in a little place between Ndumbi and Ndala. He went sometimes to Ndumbi and sometimes to Ndala to see his wives.
Once a little frog came to him and said, “Come to Ndumbi, please! Your first wife has a nice pudding for you. Come at once while the pudding is hot!”
once
однажды; когда-то, некогда once there lived жил-был когда-то; second второй; he himself он сам; at once тотчас же, немедля; while пока; hot горячийThe Frog was very happy, because he liked puddings very much. He was ready to go when another little frog came to him and said, “Please, come to Ndala! Your second wife has a nice pudding for you. Come at once while the pudding is hot!”
The Frog sat down and began to think:
“If I go to my first wife for the pudding, my second wife will be very upset. If I go to my second wife for the pudding, my first wife will be very upset, too. Where shall I go – to Ndumbi or to Ndala?”
was
был; happy счастливый; was ready [-e-] to go был готов идти; begin (began, begun) начинать and began to think и призадумался; начал размышлять; upsHe sat and thought for a long time. And he stayed at home and began to cry:
“Oh! Where shall I go, where shall I go?”
Now, when you hear frogs’ Gaou, gaou, gaou, you will understand that it means: “Where shall I go? Where shall I go? Go, go, go?”
How bad it is to have two wives who make puddings at the same time!
how
baditis как плохо; at the same time в одно и то же времяДень сто двадцать четвертый
