HILARY ELFICK

Locked out

 

You have given me the wrong
key. This key doesn’t fit the
lock. This key is from our old
house. The locksmith does not
recognise this key. I left the
key inside. My key has broken
in the lock. I took your key by
mistake. The key turns but
doesn’t unlock. This key is too
large. This key is too small.
The man with the key has
gone. There is only one key
but there are two locks. I have
lost my key. Someone stole the
key. The key is bent. He has
hidden the key. The key is not
where I left it. I thought you
had the key. This key has no
label. You told me you would
leave a key. They don’t make
this kind of key any more.

Ramas pe dinafara

mi-ai dat cheia gresita.
Nu intra in broasca.
Este cheia de la vechea casa.
Lacatusul nu o recunoaste. Am lasat
cheia inautru. Cheia mea s-a rupt
in broasca. Am luat-o pe a ta
din greseala. Se roteste
dar nu deschide usa. Cheia asta
e prea mare. Aceea e prea mica.
Omul cu cheia a disparut.
Este o singura cheie,
dar sunt doua incuietori. Mi-am pierdut
cheia. Cineva a furat-o.
E indoita. A ascuns-o. nu este
Unde am lasat-o. Am crezut
ca e la tine. Cheia asta nu are
nicio eticheta. Mi-ai spus ca
vei lasa o cheie. Nu se mai fac
astfel de chei.
