Lesson phrases
A single match would do her good, if she would dare to take one from a box, strike it against the wall to warm her fingers.,
After saying this, she grabbed it and stroked its feathers smooth.,
And she lit all the matches in the box, for she wished to keep her grandmother with her.,
And so they went to the duck cage.,
And the tomcat, whom she called her son, could arch his back and purr; he even gave sparks, but then one had to stroke his hair the wrong direction.,
And yet she said she was a true princess.,
and, see, she has a red patch on her leg,
but - the light already went out, the stove disappeared and all that was left, was the remains of a half-burnt match in her hand.,
But now she became colder, but she didn't dare to go home.,
but she didn’t think about that,
but she had poor eyesight, and therefore she thought, that this duckling must be a fat duck, who had got lost,
Do you think maybe she would like to swim, and to let the water splash over her head?,
Does she speak English?,
For sure, her father would beat her, and at home it was also cold.,
Her little feet she had drawn under her.,
How is she?,
In a corner formed by two houses, one of which protruded a little more than the other, she squatted down.,
In an old apron she carried a number of matchboxes, she was holding one of them in her hand.,
It shone towards the little girl, as if she was sitting at a large iron stove.,
It was a warm, bright flame, like a light, as she held her hands over it.
