格林童话 三个纺纱女 第8节｜英语名著

"With licking," answered she, "with licking."Then he asked the third, "How is it that you have such a broad thumb?""With twisting thread," answered she, "with twisting thread." Then the bridegroom said that from that time forward his beautiful bride should never touch a spinning-wheel. And so she escaped that tiresome flax-spinning."舔麻线舔的呗。"她回答说。然后他问第三个女人："您的大拇指怎么会这样宽呢？""捻麻线捻的呗。"她回答说。王子听罢三人的回答，大惊失色，于是就说："我美丽的新娘今后绝不再碰纺车一下。"就这样，女孩从此再也用不着干纺纱这个讨厌的活儿了。
