'Lesson Ten'
|
'In the preceding nine lessons you have learned sufficient grammar of Transitional English to be able to read almost any text in English. Of course, all vocabulary cannot be learned by anyone, but you will be able to guess the meaning of many new words simply by their context.'
'As the last exercises, please translate the following paragraphs. We would appreciate it if you would be so kind as to respond to the "Evaluation" that follows the text, and communicate with us concerning your ideas for improvement of this experimental, initial approach to learning Standard English. The Transitional English itself can be used to communicate globally with ordinary international travelers. Your comments are very important to us, and can be sent to us by e-mail. Thank you.'

'The Story of the Six Blind Men'
Löng taym àgów, in land far
away, dher lived siks blaynd mans. Ïch ov dhey bïed veri ways.
Ïch ov dhey haved gowed tu skül and rïded lots ov buks in
breyl.
Once upon a time, in a faraway land, there lived
six blind men. Each of them was very wise. Each of them had gone to school
and read lots of books in braille.
Dhey nowed sow mùch àbáwt
sow meni things dhat pïpèl wud öfèn kòm
from mayls àráwnd tu_get ov-dhey àdváys. Dhey
bïed hapi tu_sheèr wàtévèr dhey nowed
with pïpèl that asked dhey thötful kweschòns.
They knew so much about so many things that people
would often come from miles around to get their advice. They were happy
to share whatever they knew with
the people who asked them thoughtful questions.
Wòn dey dhis siks ways blaynd mans gowed
for wök in zü. Dhat dey zükïpèr bïed woriing
àbáwt öl ov-shi meni tròbèls.
One day these six wise blind men went for a walk
in the zoo. That day the zükïpèr was worrying about all
of her many troubles.
Nayt bifôr shi haved haved ärgyùmènt
with ov-shi hùzbànd, and ov-shi chaylds bïed misbihéyving
öl dey löng. Shi haved sow mùch on ov-shi maynd dhat shi
forgéted tu_lok geyt ov elèfànt keyj az shi bïed
lïving it.
The night before she had had an argument with
her husband, and her children had been misbehaving all day long. She had
so much on her mind that she forgot to
lock the gate of the elephant cage as she was
leaving it.
Naw elèfànts bï nachùràli
kyurïòs anìmàls. Dhey kwikli trayed tu_push geyt
tu_sï if it mey-owpèn. Tu ov-dhey greyt sùrpráyz,
geyt swinged frïli on ov-it hinj. Tü ov mör deèring
elèfànts wöked owvèr tu geyt. Dhey luked left
and rayt and dhen kwayètli tip-towed awt ov keyj.
Now, elephants are naturally very curious animals.
They quickly tried to push the gate to the cage to see if it might open.
To their great surprise, the gate swung freely
on its hinge. Two of the more daring elephants
walked over to the gate. They looked left and right, and then quietly tip-toed
out of the cage.
Jùst at dhat mowmènt siks blaynd
mans wöked bay. Wòn ov dhey hiàred twig snap, and gowed
owvèr tu_sï wàt it bïed dhat bïed wöking
bay.
Just at that moment the six blind men walked
by. One of them heard a twig snap, and went over to see what it was that
was walking by.
"Hay dheèr!" seyed fìrst blaynd
man tu fìrst elèfànt. "Please, yü kud-tel wi
wey tu zü restàrànt?" Elèfànt not kud-thingk
ov enithing intélìjènt tu_sey, sow hi shört ov
shifted ov-hi weyt from left tu rayt tu left tu rayt.
"Hi there !" said the first blind man to the
first elephant. "Could you please tell us the way to the zoo restaurant
?" The elephant couldn't think of anything intelligent to
say, so he sort of shifted his weight from left
to right to left to right.
Fìrst blaynd man wöked owvèr
tu_sï if big saylènt pèrsòn nïded eni help.
Dhen, with big bump, hi wöked rayt intü sayd of elèfànt.
Hi put awt ov-hi arms tu ïdhèr sayd, bùt öl dhat
hi kud-fïl bïed big bòdi ov elèfànt.
The first blind man walked over to see if this
big silent person needed any help. Then, with a big bump, he walked right
into the side of the elephant. He put out his
arms to either side, but all he could feel was
the big body of the elephant.
"Boy," seyed fìrst bland man. "Ay thingk
ay mùst-hav wöked intü wöl." Sekònd blaynd
man bïed bik`óming mör and mör kyurïòs
àbáwt wàt bïed hapèning. Hi wöked
owvèr tu front ov elèfànt and grabed howld ov ov-anìmàl
trùngk.
"Boy," said the first blind man. "I think I must
have walked into a wall. "The second blind man was becoming more and more
curious about what was happening. He
walked over to the front of the elephant and
grabbed hold of the animal's trunk.
Hi kwikli leted gow and shawted, "Dhis not bï
wöl. Dhis bï sneyk! Wi shud-step bak in keys it bï poyzònùs."
Thrïth man kwikli disáyded tu_faynd awt wàt bïed
gowing on, and tu_tel ov-hi frends wàt dhey wöked into.
He quickly let go and shouted, "This isn't a
wall. This is a snake! We should step back in case it's poisonous." The
third man quickly decided to find out what was
going on, and to tell his friends what they had
walked into.
Hi wöked owvèr tu bak ov elèfànt
and tòched ov-anìmàl teyl. "Dhis not bï wöl,
and dhis not bï sneyk. Yü bï bowth röng wòn
wòns àgén. Ay now for shuèr dhat dhis bï
rowp.
He walked over to the back of the elephant and
touched the animal's tail. "This is no wall, and this is no snake. You
are both wrong once again. I know for sure that
this is a rope."
Förth man seyed az hi nowed haw stùbòrn
ov-hi frends kud-bï. Förth blaynd man disáyded dhat sòmwòn
riàli shud-get tu botòm ov thing. Sow hi krawched dawn on
öl förs and fïled àráwnd ov-elèfànt
legs. (Lùkili for förth man, dhis elèfànt bïed
veri teym and not wud-thingk ov steping on hyümàn bïing.)
The fourth man sighed as he knew how stubborn
his friends could be. The fourth blind man decided that someone should
really get to the bottom of this thing. So he
crouched down on all fours and felt around the
elephant's legs. (Luckily for the fourth man, this elephant was very tame
and wouldn't think of stepping on a human
being.)
"Ov-ay diàr frends," ikspléyned
förth man. "Dhis not bï wöl and dhis not bï sneyk.
Dhis not bï rowp ïdhèr. Wàt wi hav hièr,
jentèlmàns, bï för trï trùngks. Dhat
bï it. Keys klowzed."
"My dear friends," explained the fourth man.
"This is no wall and this is no snake. This is no rope either. What we
have here, gentlemen, is four tree trunks. That's it.
Case closed."
Fayvth blaynd man not bïed sow kwik tu_jùmp
tu kònklüzhòns. Hi wöked ùp tu front ov
elèfànt and fïled ov-anìmàl tü löng
tùsks. "It sïm tu ay dhat dhis objekt bï meyked ùp

bï löng and kùrved and shärp at end. I not bï
shuèr wàt dhis kud-bï, bùt meybï ov-wi siksth
frend kud-help wi.
The fifth blind man was not so quick to jump
to conclusions. He walked up to the front of the elephant and felt the
animal's two long tusks. "It seems to me that this
object is made up of two swords," said the fifth
man. "What I am holding is long and curved and sharp at the end. I am not
sure what this could be, but maybe our
sixth friend could help us."
Siksth blaynd man skrached ov-hi hed and thöt
and thöt. Hi bïed wòn hü riàli bïed wayzest
ov öl ov dhey. Hi bïed wòn hü riàli nowed
wàt hi nowed, and nowed wàt hi not nowed.
The sixth blind man scratched his head and thought
and thought. He was the one who really was the wisest of all of them. He
was the one who really knew what he
knew, and knew what he didn't know.
Jùst dhen wòried zükïpèr
wöked bay. "Hay dheèr! Haw bï yü enjoying zü

replayed siksth blaynd man. "Pèrháps yü kud-help wi

Just then the worried zükïpèr
walked by. "Hi there ! How are you enjoying the zoo today ?" she asked
them all. "The zoo is very nice," replied the sixth blind
man. "Perhaps you could help us figure out the
answer to a question that's been puzzling us."
"Shuèr thing," seyed zükïpèr,
az shi fìrmli grabed ov-elèfànt kolàr.
"Sure thing," said the zükïpèr,
as she firmly grabbed the elephant's collar.
"Ov-ay frends and ay not kan-sïm tu_figùr
awt wàt dhis thing in front ov wi bï. Wòn ov wi thingk

"Wel," seyed zükïpèr. "Yü öl bï rayt. Dhis

Ownli bay sheèring wàt ïch ov yü now yü posìbèli

"My friends and I can't seem to figure out what
this thing in front of us is. One of us thinks it's a wall; one thinks
it's a snake; one thinks it's a rope, and one thinks it's
four tree trunks. How can one thing seem so different
to five different people?" "Well," said the zükïpèr. "You
are all right. This elephant seems like something
different to each one of you. And the only way
to know what this thing really is, is to do exactly what you have done.
Only by sharing what each of you knows can
you possibly reach a true understanding."
Siks ways mans haved tu_àgrî with
wisdom ov zükïpèr. Fìrst fayv ov dhey haved bïed

The six wise men had to agree with the wisdom
of the zükïpèr. The first five of them had been too quick
to form an opinion without listening to what the others
had to say.
Sow dhey öl gowed of tu zü restàrànt
and haved riàli härti lùnch.
So they all went off to the zoo restaurant and
had a really hearty lunch.
