There were three men. One is bald. The other has a rash from being dirty. The third is full of phlegm.
They agree that they have special characters, “So let’s go together.”
They start going together and the dirty nose says, “When an airplane passes, it says, ‘Whoo!’” While he says this he blows his nose.
The dirty-skinned one clasps his hands and says, “Oh, one day I saw two goats fighting like this.” In fact he’s scratching his sores.
The bald one says, “What liars you are,” covering his bald head with his hands.

ተራኪው የማይታወቅ
ሶስት ሰዎች ነበሩ፡፡ አንደኛው ራሰ በራ ነበር፡፡ ሁለተኛው ከመቆሸሹ የተነሳ እከክ ይዞት ነበር፡፡ ሶስተኛውም ንፍጣም ነበር፡፡
እነዚህም ሰዎች ልዩ ባህሪያት እንዳላቸው ተስማምተው “ስለዚህ አብረን እንሂድ፡፡” ተባባሉ፡፡
አብረውም እየሄዱ ሳለ ንፍጣሙ ሰውዬ “አውሮፕላን ሲያልፍ ‘ሁሁሁ,,,,,,,’ ይላል፡፡” ብሎ የአውሮፕላኑን አስተላለፍ ያሳየ በመምሰል አፍንጫውን ይጠርጋል፡፡
እከካሙም ሰው እጆቹን በማቆላለፍ “ኧረ አንድ ቀን ሁለት ፍየሎች እንደዚህ እያደረጉ ሲጣሉ አየሁ፡፡” ብሎ የፍየሎቹን ፀብ ያሳየ መስሎ ቁስሉን ያካል፡፡
ራሰ በራውም “ምን አይነት ውሸታሞች ናችሁ!” ብሎ የተገረመ በመምሰል መላጣውን በእጆቹ ሸፈነ ይባላል፡፡

For discussionለውይይት
- The three men each try to hide their problem in a clever way. Why do you think they do this instead of telling the truth?
- The bald man calls the others liars while he covers his own bald head. What do you think the story is trying to teach us about people who point at others' faults?
- Why might these three men have decided to travel together? What do you think 'special characters' means here?
- Think about a time when someone tried to hide something they were embarrassed about. How does this story make you feel about that?
