Kwakukho ingwenya eyayilambe kakhulu.

Once there was a very hungry crocodile.

Il était une fois un crocodile qui avait très faim.


Wakhangela ukutya ethe chu kwaye ethe cwaka. Ke ngoku…

He searched for food slowly and quietly. And then…

Il cherchait de quoi manger, doucement et sans faire de bruit. Et soudain …


POW!!! Yahlasela ingwenya!

POW!!! The crocodile strikes!

TCHAK !!! Le crocodile attaque !


Emva koko akasalambanga kwaye wonwabile.

After that he is no longer hungry, and he is happy.

Après cela, sa faim est calmée, et il est content.


Ade alambe kwakhona.

Until he gets hungry again.

Jusqu’à ce qu’il ait faim de nouveau.
