ИСТОРИЯ О ТРЕХ ГОБЛИНАХ

Once upon a time there were three little goblins (однажды жили-были три маленьких гоблина; once upon a time — однажды: «однажды во время= в одно время»; there were — были: «там были»; goblin — гоблин; goblins — гоблины).

Their names were (их звали: «их имена были») Red-Cap, Blue-Cap and Yellow-Cap (Красный Колпак, Синий Колпак и Желтый Колпак), and they lived in a mountain (и они жили в горе; to live — жить; lived — жили).

Once upon a time there were three little goblins.

Their names were Red-Cap, Blue-Cap and Yellow-Cap, and they lived in a mountain.

The goblins had a great friend (у гоблинов был большой друг: «гоблины имели большого друга»)—a green frog whose name was Rowley (зеленую лягушку по имени Роули: «чье имя было Роули»).

Rowley came every year to see the little goblins (Роули приходил каждый год повидать маленьких гоблинов; to come— приходить; came— приходил), and told them stories about the Big World where he lived (и рассказывал им истории о Большом Мире, в котором он жил: «где он жил»; to tell— рассказывать; told— рассказывал).

The goblins had never seen the Big World (гоблины никогда не видели Большого Мира; to see— видеть; had never seen — никогда не видели: «/не/ имели никогда увиденным»), and often asked their father (и часто просили своего отца) to let them go with Rowley (разрешить им пойти с Роули = отпустить их с Роули), but he always said (но он всегда говорил), “Not yet, my sons (еще нет: «нет пока», мои сыновья = сыночки).”
