Un cœur dans la glace
Gaspard, le souriceau, garde au fond de son cœur un petit secret: Susie, une petite souris coquine, lui a fait tourner la tête.
Mais Gaspard est quelque peu timide et lorsqu'il aperçoit la belle Susie, ses jambes se mettent à trembler et, bouche bée, il la regarde passer.
Comment lui déclarer sa flamme? Gaspard a une fabuleuse idée: il s'élance sur la mare gelée et dessine sur la glace un grand cœur pour sa bien-aimée. Celle-ci, clignant des yeux, lui offre alors un tendre baiser!

 Histoire 31 - Un cœur dans la glace

Привет! Это мой подкаст «По-русски легко!». De cette petite histoire, vous apprenez le nomы des vêtements différents et un proverbe russe. J’utilise des mots dans le cas génitif et verbes imparfaits et parfaits.
Катя любит красиво и модно одеваться. Сегодня Катя открыла шкаф и подумала: «Мне нужна новая одежда!». В шкафу было много платьев, несколько джинсов, восемь свитеров, двадцать одна блузка и три пальто… Все женщины знают эту ситуацию: шкаф полный, а надеть нечего. Катя пошла в магазин. Там она долго выбирала, что лучше купить. И Катя купила красивый шерстяной шарф и тёплые перчатки.  Это был удачный шоппинг!

Шкаф полный, а надеть нечего! - Une armoire pleine mais rien à mettre!
модно одеваться/быть одетой модно - avoir des vêtements à la mode
носить модную одежду - porter les vêtements à la mode 
открывать/открыть – ouvrir
думать/подумать – penser
выбирать/выбрать - choisir
много – beaucoup
несколько – plusieurs
платье – une robe 
джинсы -  un jean
блузка - un chemisier
пальто - un manteau
шерстяной шарф - un foulard en laine
