Foreign Language Lesson

Mrs. Jewls taught the class how to say “yes” in three different languages.

Yes in Spanish is sí, which is pronounced like “see.”

Yes in French is oui, which is pronounced like “we.”

Yes in Russian is da, which is pronounced like “da.”

“Does everybody understand?” she asked.

“We,” said Joe.

“See,” said Jason.

“Duh,” said Jenny.

“No, da,” said Mrs. Jewls. “Now I want everyone to write ‘yes’ in another language, and use it in a multiplication problem.”
