THE MAN WITH THE CHILDLIKE ACCENT
Oh! Pardon me.
It happened here!
When I was very little,
something really frightened me at this place.
Since then, I can't pronounce certain letters.
Which ones?
For example, the letter "sya." (SH)
Or the letter "el." (R)
The doctor told me that I need to have someone
scare me again at this place.
Maybe then I'll start to pronounce them again.
Help me, please.
How?
Scare me, scare me very much!
Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
I'm not afraid of dogs.
Snake! Snake!
I'm not afraid of snakes either.
What are you afraid of?
Nothing, I think; I can't even imagine what I can be scared with.
Imagine yourself arriving at the zoo.
I'm imagining it.
And suddenly, there's a tiger!
Where's the tiger?
That's that.
Nothing scary about it.
Too bad.
Imagine yourself flying in a hot air balloon.
I'm imagining it.
I'm imagining it quite well.
I'm flying, flying... and then what?
And suddenly, your balloon bursts.
Everything's fine.
Unfortunately, there's nothing scary about that.
Imagine yourself... atchoo... being caught by a cannibal.
What sort of cannibal?
A hungry one!
I'm imagining it.
What can you do?
I'm too brave.
Imagine yourself setting off on a sea voyage around the world.
I'm imagining it.
And suddenly, there are pirates!
Hands up!
Stretch out!
On your shoulders.
And down.
Begin the workout!
One, two.
Three, four.
Up, out, shoulders, down.
Don't slouch, breathe deeper.
In, out. In, out.
Breathe even deeper.
Okay, good. We're done with the workout.
Now let's move on to aquatic therapy.
We won't get anywhere.
I'm just too brave.
Oh! Careful!
Careful, you'll fall down!
Call an ambulance, hurry!
An ambulance! Hurry!
No need for an ambulance, everything's fine.
Phew, you gave me such a scare.
Now he can pronounce all the letters.
