Father was listening to his son interestingly studying English. He thought to ask his son some English. | Lauxpe thviaf yn-kviar teq thak Engguo thak-gaq cviaa-zhuobi, ciu sviuxbøeq mng yn-kviar cidkoar Engguo. |
It came across to see a young girl passing by their front door. He asked
his son,"How do you say Zabor-Gyn'ar in English ?"
= His son said,"Girl". Father heard the word "Go'ar", so he asked, "Then, how do you say Go'ar in English ?" Son answered, "Goose". Father heard the word as "Guu". |

So he asked,"Then, how do you say Guu in English ?" His son said,
"That's Cow." Father heard he said,"That's Kao" so he
asked,
"Then how do you say Kao in English ?" His son said, "Dog." Father heard the word "Lok", so he asked," Then, how do you say Log'ar in English ?" = His son answered, "Deer". The more the father heard, the more he became confused, so he asked, "Then, what is Ti'ar in English ?" =- His son answered, "Pig". Father is a little mad, so he edked,"Then what is Piq ?" His son did not know what's Piq in English, so he answered, "There is no Piq in England, so there is no such word." |

on, father told others everywhere that English people
were so wild, they changed our animals' name in a big way. |
