Let us learn:

A stitch in time (சரியான நேரத்தில் போடப்பட்ட ஒரு தையல்)

“Oh no,” wails Shyam.

ஷ்யாம், “ஓம்” என புலம்பினான்.

The seams of his favourite shirt have come aprt.

அவனுக்கு பிடித்த சட்டையின் தையல் தனியாய் பிரிந்து விட்டது.

“I can’t wear this shirt anymore, Thatha!”

“இனி இந்த சட்டையை என்னால் அணிந்துகொள்ள முடியாது, தாத்தா”, என்றான்.

“Of course you can, silly,” his grandfather says.

“நிச்சயமாக உன்னால் முடியும், முட்டாளே” என்றார் அவனது தாத்தா.

“We can fix it!”

“நாம் அதை இணைத்து விடலாம்”.

Samacheer Kalvi 3rd Standard English Guide Term 3 Chapter 2 Tools We Use

Thatha takes a needle and some blue thread.

ஓர் ஊசியையும், நீலநிற நூலையும் தாத்தா எடுத்தார்.

He shows Shyam how to stitch.
எப்படித் தைப்பது என அவர் ஷ்யாமுக்கு காண்பித்தார்.

Shyam’s friend Veni has come home.

ஸ்யாமின் தோழி வேணி வீட்டுக்கு வந்தாள்.

“Let’s go cycling,” Veni says.

“நாம் சைக்கிள் ஓட்டப் போகலாம்”, என்றாள் வேணி.

“In a minute,” says Shaym. “Let me iron my shirt first.”

“ஒரு நிமிடம், என் சட்டையை முதலில் நான் சலவை செய்து விடுகிறேன்,” என்றான் ஷ்யாம்.

Samacheer Kalvi 3rd Standard English Guide Term 3 Chapter 2 Tools We Use

He switches on the iron box. But the light doesn’t glow, and the iron remains cold.

சலவைப் பெட்டியின் சுவிட்சைப் போட்டான் அவன். ஆனால் அதன் விளக்கு எரியவில்லை. சலவைப் பெட்டியும் குளிர்ச்சியாகவே இருந்தது.

“Ufff! I’ll just wear the crumpled shirt,” grumbles Shyam.

“உஃப்! நான் கசங்கிய சட்டையையே அணியப்போகிறேன்,” என ஷ்யாம் குறைபட்டுக் கொண்டான்.

“I was at the Repair Shop last week,” says Veni.”

“சென்ற வாரம் நான் பழுதுபார்க்கும் கடையில் இருந்தேன்,” என்றாள் வேணி.

“George Uncle was repairing an iron box. I watched what he was doing closely. Let’s try to make it work! Do you have a screwdriver?”.

“ஜார்ஜ் மாமா ஒரு சலவைப்பெட்டியை ரிப்பேர் செய்து கொண்டிருந்தார். நான் அருகிலிருந்தபடி அவர் செய்வதை கவனித்தேன். நாம் இதை முயற்சி செய்து பார்க்கலாம். உன்னிடம் ஸ்க்ரூ டிரைவர் உள்ளதா?

Samacheer Kalvi 3rd Standard English Guide Term 3 Chapter 2 Tools We Use

Shyam hunts in the cupboard and gets a screwdriver. Veni unscrews the back of the iron. She scans the inside of the iron..

ஷ்யாம் அலமாரியில் தேடி, ஒரு ஸ்க்ரூடிரைவரை எடுத்தான். வேணி சலவைப்பெட்டியின் பின்புறத்தில் இருந்த ஸ்க்ரூவை கழற்றினாள். பெட்டியின் உட்புறத்தை அவள் ஆராய்ந்தாள்.

“What’s wrong?” asks Shyam.

“என்ன ஆயிற்று?” என்று ஷ்யாம் கேட்டான்.

“I don’t think I can repair it,” says Veni.

“இதை சரி செய்ய முடியுமென்று எனக்குத் தோன்றவில்லை,” என்றாள் வேணி.

“Oh no! Appa and Amma will scold us when they see what we have done to the iron box!”

“ஓ! நாம் இந்த சலவைப்பெட்டியை என்ன செய்திருக்கிறோம் என அப்பா, அம்மா பார்த்தால் திட்டுவார்கள்,” என்றான் ஷ்யாம்.

Samacheer Kalvi 3rd Standard English Guide Term 3 Chapter 2 Tools We Use

“We’ll take it to the Repair Shop! .. They’ll help us.” says Shyam. Shyam and Veni take it and sneak out on their cycles to the Repair Shop..

“நாம் இதை ரிப்பேர் கடைக்கு எடுத்துப்போகலாம். ” அவர்கள் நமக்கு உதவுவார்கள்,” என்றான்ஷ்யாம். ஷ்யாமும், வேணியும் அதை எடுத்துக்கொண்டு, ரிப்பேர் கடைக்கு சைக்கிளில் சென்றனர்.

“Aunty, can you help us repair this iron box?” Veni asks Daisy Aunty.

“ஆன்ட்டி, இந்த சலவைப் பெட்டியை சரி செய்து எங்களுக்கு உதவ முடியுமா?” என்று டெய்ஸி ஆன்ட்டியிடம் வேணி கேட்டாள்.

“What’s wrong with it?”

“இதில் என்ன பிரச்சனை?”

“It won’t switch on!” says Veni.

“ஸ்விட்சைப் போட்டாலும் இது வேலை செய்யவில்லை,” என்றாள் வேணி.

Daisy Aunty takes out a little box with wires and knobs.

ஒயர்களும், குமிழ்களும் கொண்ட ஒரு சிறு பெட்டியை டெய்ஸி ஆன்ட்டி எடுத்தார்.

Samacheer Kalvi 3rd Standard English Guide Term 3 Chapter 2 Tools We Use

“This is a multimeter,” she says. “It checks if all parts of the iron are allowing electric current to flow.”

“இது ஒரு மல்ட்டி மீட்டர். சலவைப்பெட்டியில் மின்னோட்டம் சரியாகப் பாய்கிறதா என இது சரி பார்க்கும்,” என்றார் டெய்ஸி ஆன்ட்டி.

She tests all the parts, until she comes to a small wire.

அதன் எல்லா பாகங்களையும் சோதித்த அவர், இறுதியில் ஒரு சிறிய ஒயரை பார்த்தார்.

“See this wire next to the plug? It’s broken – there’s your problem!”

“இந்த ஒயர் அறுபட்டிருக்கிறது. இது தான் பிரச்சனை.”

She cuts out the old wire and plug, and fixes a new wire and plug to the iron box.

அவர் சலவைப் பெட்டியிலுள்ள பழைய ஓயரை ப்ளக்-உடன் எடுத்து விட்டு, ஒரு புதிய ஒயரையும், ப்ளக்கையும் இணைத்தார்.

“Let’s test it.” She switches it on, and the light glows.

“நாம் சோதித்துப் பார்க்கலாம்.” அவர் ஸ்விட்சைப் போட்டார். அதிலிருந்த விளக்கு ஒளிர்ந்தது.

Samacheer Kalvi 3rd Standard English Guide Term 3 Chapter 2 Tools We Use

The iron is fixed. Veni and Shyam ride back home. It is a day well spent!

சலவைப் பெட்டி சரியாகி விட்டது. வேணியும், ஷ்யாமும் வீட்டுக்குத் திரும்ப சவாரி செய்தனர். அந்த நாள் நல்ல முறையில் கழிந்தது.

Amazing Ammachi (அற்புதமான பாட்டி):

“Ammachi! Could we make coconut barfi?”, Sabari asked.

“பாட்டி! நாம் தேங்காய் பர்பி செய்யலாமா?” என சபரி கேட்டான்.

“Please?”, he asked.

“தயவு செய்து?” அவன் கேட்டான்.

“Ha ha ha! Only if you help me make it!” replied Ammachi.

“ஹா, ஹா, ஹா! நீ எனக்கு உதவினால், நான் அதை செய்து தருகிறேன்,” என்று பதிலளித்தார்பாட்டி.

“YAY!”, said Sabari excitedly.

“சரி,” என்று உற்சாகமாகச் சொன்னான் சபரி.

“Ready?” shouted Sabari.

“தயாரா?,” என கூச்சலிட்டு சபரி கேட்டான்.

“Ready!” said Ammachi after sitting on the seat tied to the pulley.

ஓர் உருளைக் கப்பியுடன் இணைத்துக் கட்டப்பட்ட இருக்கையில் (சீட்டில்) அமர்ந்த பிறகு பாட்டி “தயார்” என்று சொன்னார்.

“We will only pick ripe coconuts, okay? The ones that are brown all over.”

“பழுத்த தேங்காய்களை மட்டுமே நாம் பறிப்போம், சரியா? அவை முழுதும் பழுப்பு நிறமாகக் காணப்படும்.”

“Pull me up! Up! Up! And Up!”

“என்னை மேலே இழு! மேலே! இன்னும் மேலே!.” என்றார் பாட்டி.

“Now, watch out! Here they come!”

“இப்போது கவனி. தேங்காய்கள் கீழே விழுகின்றன!”

க்ராங்க் இயந்திரத்தின் நெம்புகோல் ஒலித்தது!

“GRRRRRR!”
“கார்ர்”

This was Sabari’s tummy not the lever. Ammachi giggled.

இது சபரியின் வயிறு எழுப்பிய சத்தம், நெம்புகோல் அல்ல. பாட்டி சிரித்தாள்.

“Then we crack the shell with the cleaver. Like THIS!”.

“பிறகு இந்த வெட்டுக்கத்தியுடன் தேங்காயை உடைக்கிறோம். இப்படித்தான்!”

KHATAK!

கடக்!

“It smells so good, Ammachi!” said Sabari.

“இது மிக நன்றாக மணக்கிறது பாட்டி,” என்றான் சபரி.

“Then we pour it all out on to a tray. Let us wait for it to cool.”

“பிறகு, ஒரு தட்டில் நாம் அதை ஊற்றுகிறோம். அது குளிர்ச்சியடையும் வரை காத்திருப்போம்.”

“YUM! Thank you Ammachi.”
