LEARNING

A child who doesn't know yet to write says that hates his parents.
And wants to write on a paper: that hates his parents.
He knows a few letters, but can't still write. Asks his mother how to spell her name and his father's name. The mother tells him, spells, explains. Then the boy asks how to write "I hate you both". The mother hesitates, but then spells, explains, helps to draw the letters.

APRENDER

Uma criança que ainda não sabe escrever diz que odeia os pais.
E quer escrever isso no papel: que odeia os pais.
Sabe algumas letras, mas ainda não sabe escrever. Pergunta à mãe como se escreve o nome dela e o do pai. A mãe diz-lhe, soletra, explica. Depois o menino pergunta como se escreve "odeio-vos". A mãe hesita, mas depois soletra, explica, ajuda a desenhar as letras.
