Step 8, set 8

A word a day

The text

Tip for the adult

Read it twice if you can: the first time to get the words right and the second time to read it as a whole.

Min farmor bor hos os.

Hun har sit eget værelse ved siden af mit, og om aftenen kan jeg høre hendes radio gennem væggen.

Farmor taler ikke så meget dansk.

Derfor lærer jeg hende et nyt ord hver dag, og hun lærer mig et ord på sit sprog.

I går var det ordet paraply.

Hun sagde det forkert tre gange og grinede af sig selv.

I dag regnede det, da vi skulle handle.

Farmor tog sin paraply og kiggede på mig.

"Paraply," sagde hun.

Det var helt rigtigt.
