Bird Seller

 

Wilfried comes to complain. He is going to see the seller who had sold him a parrot which the seller had certified to live for 20 years.

“The parrot died yesterday,” Wilfried says.

“That means that the parrot was 20 years old yesterday,” the bird seller answers.

“那只鹦鹉昨天死了，”  威尔弗里德说。

“那说明那只鹦鹉昨天20岁了，” 鸟贩子回答道。
