Join Fred on his adventure to discover some monsters through his magical glasses.

Fred: Hello (ÄãºÃ N¨« h¨£o). My name is ( ÎҽРW¨¯ ji¨¤o) Fred and I live near a forest.

I wear glasses (ÑÛ¾µ y¨£n j¨¬ng) that help me to see ( ¿´µ½ k¨¤n d¨¤o) creatures where nobody else can.

My bag is packed, my boots are on and I¡¯m ready for an adventure.

Fred: What¡¯s your name? (Äã½Ðʲô£¿ N¨« ji¨¤o sh¨¦n me?)

Monster: My name is (ÎҽРW¨¯ ji¨¤o) Clyro and I live in the trees.

I have six arms (ÊÖ±Û sh¨¯u b¨¬) that help me to climb ( ÅÀ ±è¨¢) where nobody else can and I am green ( ÂÌÉ«µÄ l¨¸ s¨¨ de) so that I can hide in the trees.

Fred: What's your name? (Äã½Ðʲô£¿ N¨« ji¨¤o sh¨¦n me?)

Monster: My name is (ÎҽРW¨¯ ji¨¤o) Slidder and I live in the bushes.

I have a big nose (±Ç×Ó b¨ª zi) that helps me to smell ( ÎÅ ·É¨¦²Ô) what nobody else can smell and I do not need eyes ( ÑÛ¾¦ y¨£n j¨©ng) when I live in the dark.

Fred: What¡¯s your name? (Äã½Ðʲô£¿ N¨« ji¨¤o sh¨¦n me?)

Monster: My name is (ÎҽРW¨¯ ji¨¤o) Swithe and I live in the water ( Ë® ²õ³ó³Ü¨«).

I have a lot of fins that help me to swim (ÓÎÓ¾ y¨®u y¨¯ng) where nobody else can swim and my eyes ( ÑÛ¾¦ y¨£n j¨©ng) let me see ( ¿´µ½ k¨¤n d¨¤o) at the bottom of the ocean.

Fred: What's your name? (Äã½Ðʲô£¿ N¨« ji¨¤o sh¨¦n me?)

Monster: My name is (ÎҽРW¨¯ ji¨¤o) Flite and I live where I land.

I have two wings (³á°ò ch¨¬ b¨£ng) that help me to fly ( ·É ´Ú¨¥¾±) where nobody else can fly and my song ( ¸èÇú g¨¥ q¨³) is the most beautiful in the world.

Fred: That¡¯s enough for one day.

All this adventuring has made me hungry (¶ö ¨¨).

Did you know?

In Mandarin, some pinyin can look very similar, but it is important to notice their differences, for example:

• ÑÛ¾¦ y¨£n j¨©ng (eyes)
• ÑÛ¾µ y¨£n j¨¬ng (glasses)

At a glance, these Mandarin words may look the same, but there is a difference in the tone over the 'i' and so they are pronounced differently.
