Lesson 81 (ir /er/, ur /er/)

"Javier, the lemur, sat on a rock, wearing a purple shirt."

"He thought, 'I thirst for adventure today.'"

"Taking his map, Javier plunged into the vast forest."

"His mother had told him to 'Watch for dirt trails, son.'"

"Javier found a dirt path, and followed it."

"On his way, he saw a bird chirping cheerfully."

"The bird's chirp was the first sign of life he saw."

"Further into the forest, he saw a turtle crawling."

"Javier said, 'Hi, sir turtle, where are you going?'"

"The turtle replied, 'I'm going to the water, young lemur.'"
