Last night we watched Horrid Henry. Teresa really liked the version of Fr\u00e8re Jacques. But when the girls sang it in the car: I was at first surprised, then confused and finally amused. For they sang:<\/p>\n

\n

Fr\u00e8re Jacques, fr\u00e8re Jacques,<\/em>
\n Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous?<\/em>
\n Y\u012b zh\u012b m\u00e9iy\u01d2u y\u01cenj\u012bng,<\/em>

\n Zh\u0113n q\u00edgu\u00e0i.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It took a few goes to explain to them where they had gone wrong. Of course they mixed up two songs with the same tune. They had mixed up Fr\u00e8re Jacques, which they had only just learned with a song they know well, Li\u01ceng zh\u012b l\u01ceoh\u01d4.<\/p>\n

\n

Fr\u00e8re Jacques, fr\u00e8re Jacques,<\/em>
\n Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous?<\/em>
\n Sonnez les matines! Sonnez les matines!<\/em>
\n Ding, daing, dong. Ding, daing, dong.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\"500px-Frere_Jacques\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And two tigers:<\/p>\n

\n
