點解 河馬 冇 毛 Why hippos have no hair

有 一日 ，兔仔 喺 河邊 散 吓 步。 One day, the rabbit was walking by the river.

河馬 咁啱 都 喺度 ，一路 行 行 吓 ，一路 搵 啲 好味 嘅 野草 嚟 食。 The hippopotamus is still there now, walking all the way, hunting for some delicious weeds to eat.

河馬 冇 見到 兔仔 ，一 唔 小心 就 踩 親 兔仔 隻 腳。 The hippo did not see the rabbit and stepped on the rabbit's foot when he was not careful. 兔仔 鬧 住 河馬 大嗌：「衰 河馬！ The rabbit caught the hippo and quarrelled: "Damn, hippo! 你 冇 見到 你 踩親 我 隻 腳 咩？ Did you see that you stepped on my foot? 」 "

河馬 急 住 同 兔仔 道歉 ：「真係 唔好意思 ，老友！ Hippo apologized to Rabbit: "I'm sorry, old friend! 我 睇 唔到 你！ I can't see you! 請 原諒 我 啦！ Please forgive me! 」兔仔 唔 肯 聽 河馬 解釋 ，好 嬲 噉 鬧 河馬 ：「你 肯定 係 有心 踩親 我 㗎！ "The rabbit refused to listen to Hippo's explanation and got mad at him: "You must be trying to step on me! 總有 一日 你 會 受到 懲罰！ One day you will be punished! 」 "

兔仔 去 搵 火 ，就 對 火 話 ：「趁 河馬 出水 嚟 食草 嘅 時候 ，向 佢 放 把 火 啦。 The rabbit went to find a fire and said to the fire, "When the hippo comes out of the water to eat grass, put a fire on it. 佢 竟然 夠膽 踩 我 隻 腳。」 She had the guts to step on my foot." 火 回答 佢 話 ：「冇 問題 ，老友記！ Fire replied to her, "No problem, old friend! 我 即刻 去 照 你 講 嘅 做。」 I'm going to do what you said right now.

過 咗 陣 ，河馬 正 喺 離 河岸 好 遠 嘅 地方 食草。 After a while, the hippo was grazing at a place far from the river bank. 「哄 」嘅 一 聲 ，火 突然間 燒 起上嚟 ，燒 到 河馬 身上。 "The fire suddenly burst into flames and reached the hippopotamus.

河馬 大 嗌，急住 向 河邊 走 去 ，但 係 佢 嘅 毛 已經 燒到 冇 晒。 The hippopotamus quarrelled and rushed to the river, but his fur was already burnt to nothing. 河馬 好 傷心 噉 話 ：「我 嘅 毛 全部 被 火燒 晒！ The hippopotamus was so sad: "My fur is all on fire! 你 燒晒 我 啲 毛！ You burned my hair! 全部 唔見咗！ All of them are not seen! 我 好 靚 嘅 毛！ I'm so pretty! 」

河馬 嘅 毛 燒 咗 ，兔仔 就 好 高興。 The hippo's fur is burnt and the rabbit is so happy. 直到 今日 ，河馬 都 唔敢 離 河岸 太 遠 ，因為 佢 驚 又 要 被 火燒 啦。 To this day, hippos dare not stray too far from the riverbank because they are afraid they will be burned again.
