γράφομεν καλάμῳ, ὁρῶμεν τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς,
we write with a pen, and see with our eyes.
τὴν ἐπιστολὴν ἥν σοι γράφω δὸς τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς,
the letter which I write for you give to your brothers.
πόσους ἔχεις ἀδελφούς; how many brothers have you?
ἕξ, ἀδελφὰς δὲ ἑπτά, six, and seven sisters.
δεινὰ ταῦτα, that is too bad!
πόσα ἔχεις ῥόδα ἐν τῷ πετάσῳ;
how many roses have you in your hat?
δώδεκα, λείρια δὲ ἕξ, twelve, and six lilies.
πόσους ἔχει ἵππους ὁ ἀδελφός;
how many horses has your brother?
τρεῖς, three.
ὁρᾷς τοὺς κύκνους καὶ τοὺς γεράνους ἐν τῇ λίμνῃ;
do you see the swans and the cranes in the loch?
