Creating Children's Stories

WHAT LANGUAGE IS THAT? João loved Saturday, it was his day to go to the square near his house and play with the children in the neighborhood and others who always showed up there. As soon as the alarm went off, he jumped out of bed and ran into the bathroom, he couldn't let his younger sister in before him, if that happened he would have to wait half a century before she got out. Upon leaving the bathroom, he met with his sister and said: - "Vrienda uk beliskas" - What language is that? Asked the sister, entering the bathroom never to leave. João was surprised by what had just come out of his mouth, but he continued on his way. He changed his clothes and ran to the kitchen for breakfast. Upon arriving the mother said: - Do you want chocolate milk? - "Nari dunga!" - What language is that? Asked the mother. João started to get worried, he didn't know what was happening and said to his mother: - "Liu Quemá nestra Churras!" - João, I don't understand anything! Stop this joke! I have a lot to do, I imagine you don't want milk today. The boy started to get really worried and if nobody ever understood him again, he ran to his room and decided to go to the square, maybe there someone would help him. The square was full of children from the neighborhood and other neighborhoods, he saw his group playing ball, approached and said: - "Peli di fi lo lipem! Vrotor tarator!" - What language is that? - everyone asked. And João could only pronounce words that nobody understood, his friends started laughing at him over and over. The boy was sad and went to sit under a tree, there he saw that one of the boys who ran with the group dropped without realizing a bag of marbles. He got up and went to get the bag, as soon as the game was over he approached the boy who had lost the marbles and said, showing what he had in his hands: - "Vragora gomera lutiba merole pum." - What did you say? Asked the boy. - "Vragora gomera lutiba merole pum." - That I farted? And what are you doing with my marble bag! You stole? - "Diem!" Shouted João. After that "diem" a confusion started, everyone shouting at João thinking he had stolen the boy and on top of that calling him a pimp. The mess just didn't turn into an ugly fight because a girl João's age, who had seen the whole scene, including the bag of marbles falling from the boy's pocket, got into the mess and said: - I saw everything that happened! You dropped that marble bag on the floor and it picked it up and is returning it. João looked at the girl and in a thankful tone said: - "Metuki yefo bidu." And to the general astonishment, the girl replied: - "Emet motek." Everyone laughed now at the girl and decided to go to another place in the square, João opened a smile and said: - "Lestus brutis desocos mocus." "Yes, I understand your language perfectly," said the girl. She then told João that one day she also woke up speaking a language that no one understood, it seemed that she lived on a different planet from the others, but over time she found other children who also felt the same way. - Sometimes it seems that nobody understands us, doesn't it? - "Nari" When talking more with the girl, whose name was Sofia, João gradually realized that his language was returning to normal. - Sofia, very "thank you", ops, I think I still have some extraterrestrial words stuck in my throat. The two laughed at the “obrigadis”, agreed to meet the other Saturday in the square and said goodbye. The next Saturday, João ran to have his breakfast, while at the table, his younger sister arrived, the mother looked at the daughter and asked: - Marina, do you want bread with curd? - "Mutandes alleys!" - What language is that, Marina? Said the mother. João got up from the table, patted his sister on the head and ran to the square. THE END
