Pada materi pelajaran bahasa Inggris kelas 6 kali ini akan dibahas tentang Folk Tales
(Dongeng). Mempelajari dongeng penting karena dongeng memberikan kita
banyak pelajaran tentang keidupan. Intinya, sebuah dongeng pasti
memberikan pesan moral bagi yang membacanya atau yang mendengarkannya.
Contoh dongeng yaitu, legenda suatu tempat, cerita tentang binatang,
cerita tentang peri dan yang lainnya.
Dongeng yang terkenal dari negara kita, Indonesia adalah Kancil dan Buaya (Mouse deer and Crocodile).
Kancil memiliki watak pintar tetapi licik sehingga bisa berbohong
kepada buaya untuk mewujudkan keinginannya. Dongeng lain yang terkenal
dari Arab yaitu kisah Alladin. Asal usul Alladin tidak diketahui tetapi
ceritanya menjadi menarik karena Aladin mempunyai lampu ajaib yang bisa
mengabulkan permintaan. Cerita dalam dongeng bisa jadi khayalan para
pembuatnya, artinya bcerita yang disajikan dalam dongeng bukan kisah
nyata.

As soon as the fish was free, it changed into a woman. She said
that he had to keep the secret that she was once a fish. Sahala promised
that he would not tell anyone about it.
