The sun is a circle.       Lao translation

Kathy:        Our guest today is Jenny Chen

                  How are you today?

Jenny:      Fine.

Kathy:      Jenny, tell us a little about your son.

Jenny:      Jason....

                  Well, he likes to draw pictures.

                  It’s something we like to do together.

                  First I draw a circle, a square, or some other shape.

                  And then Jason draws a picture with that shape.

Kathy:      Can you give us an example?

Jenny:      Sure.

                  Last night I drew a circle on a piece of paper.

                  And I asked Jason, “What is it?”

Kathy:      What did he say?

Jenny:        He said, “It’s the sun.”

Kathy:      Yes, the sun is a circle.

Jenny:      And then he drew a tree and some flowers.

                  And he made a picture of a sunny day.

Kathy:        Our guest is Jenny Chen.  We’ll talk more after our break.

                  This is New Dynamic English.
