23
00:01:46.290 --> 00:01:52.450
Pehmeä tuuli leikkii syksyn kullankeltaisilla lehdillä, jotka putoilevat hiljalleen rivikadun
24
00:01:52.469 --> 00:02:00.069
värikkäissä puutarhoissa. Leena mixes up in the rhythm of the steps.
25
00:02:00.090 --> 00:02:03.650
She flirts with her brother Jari, who follows her uncertainly,
26
00:02:03.909 --> 00:02:07.670
but still with her. Two days later, the dear cat
27
00:02:07.730 --> 00:02:14.370
of the family, Mr. Viskers, disappeared. Leena has decided to
28
00:02:14.409 --> 00:02:18.430
find him, even though the adults relate to the matter less.
29
00:02:19.750 --> 00:02:22.930
Jari tries to stay calm, even though he is afraid,
30
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:30.789
että he jäävät kiinni omista nuuskintapuuhistaan. Tuuli, heidän ystävänsä naapurista,
31
00:02:31.110 --> 00:02:37.650
on mukana, ja hänen kasvoillaan on salaperäinen ilme. Hän tietää jotain,
32
00:02:37.930 --> 00:02:44.069
mutta mitä? He kulkevat hiljaisia katuja, joilla katuvalojen himmeä valo
33
00:02:44.110 --> 00:02:50.479
luo varjoja talojen seiniin. Leena on varustautunut lyhdyllä, jonka valo
34
00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:56.259
hyppii syksynlehtien seassa eteenpäin. He ends up at the windmill,
35
00:02:56.520 --> 00:03:00.960
where the old vaj is standing as if waiting. Leena
36
00:03:01.259 --> 00:03:05.949
opens the door of the vaj carefully. A fascinating sight
37
00:03:05.969 --> 00:03:09.710
emerges from the inside. The tree branches are covered with branches,
38
00:03:09.789 --> 00:03:12.330
and among them is Mr. Viskers, calm and good-winded. In
39
00:03:12.349 --> 00:03:15.389
front of him stands the little brother of the wind,
40
00:03:15.490 --> 00:03:18.629
who is excitedly playing with the cat. I found it.
41
00:03:24.409 --> 00:03:32.139
Se on täällä piilossa leikkimässä, poika selittää ylpeänä. Leena huokaisee helpotuksesta,
42
00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:38.340
kun hän rapsuttaa kissan pehmeää turkkia. Mr. Viskers katsoo heitä
43
00:03:38.370 --> 00:03:44.490
suurin silmin ja heilauttaa iloisesti häntäänsä. Se oli vain väärinkäsitys,
44
00:03:44.849 --> 00:03:51.259
tuuli naurahtaa ja hymyilee ystävilleen. Leena tuijottaa ystäväänsä hetken ja
45
00:03:51.280 --> 00:04:00.349
nyökkää sitten. Koko seikkailu tuntuu yhtäkkiä naurettavan yksinkertaiselta. Hän on oppinut,
46
00:04:00.729 --> 00:04:07.469
että ongelmien ratkaisemiseen tarvitaan sekä rohkeutta että ystävien apua. Kun Mr.
47
00:04:07.509 --> 00:04:11.889
Whiskers on turvallisesti takaisin kotona ja tuuli tanssii taas lehtiä
48
00:04:12.009 --> 00:04:20.149
pitkin rivikatua, Leena tuntee itsensä vahvaksi. Jari hymyilee leveästi. Hän
49
00:04:20.269 --> 00:04:29.050
ei enää pelkää pieniä seikkailuja. Me teimme sen. Yhdessä. Leena
50
00:04:29.089 --> 00:04:36.810
julistaa riemukkaasti, ja heidän naurunsa kaikuu hiljaisessa illassa. Lapset iloitsevat,
51
00:04:37.170 --> 00:04:41.490
sillä Mr. Whiskers on jälleen siellä, missä kuuluukin, kotona.
52
00:04:42.529 --> 00:04:45.670
Let's take another listen. Listen closely to any parts you
53
00:04:45.689 --> 00:04:46.329
may have missed.
54
00:04:46.990 --> 00:04:54.970
Pehmeä tuuli leikkii syksyn kullankeltaisilla lehdillä, jotka putoilevat hiljalleen rivikadun
55
00:04:55.009 --> 00:04:57.189
värikkäissä puutarhoissa.
56
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:01.779
A gentle breeze plays with the golden yellow leaves of autumn,
57
00:05:02.259 --> 00:05:05.019
which fall slowly in the colorful gardens of Rivikatu.
58
00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:09.339
Leena sekoittaa askelten rytmissä.
59
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:12.850
Leena mixes the rhythm of footsteps.
60
00:05:14.110 --> 00:05:21.750
Hän vilkaisee veljään Jaria, joka seuraa häntä epävarmana, mutta kuitenkin mukana.
61
00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:26.680
She glances at her brother Jari, who follows her uncertainly,
62
00:05:27.019 --> 00:05:28.120
but still comes along.

päivää sitten perheen rakas kissa, Mr. Whiskers, katosi.
64
00:05:37.399 --> 00:05:41.050
Two days ago, the family's beloved cat, Mr. Whiskers, disappeared.
65
00:05:42.209 --> 00:05:49.350
Lena on päättänyt löytää sen, vaikka aikuiset suhtautuvat asiaan vähätellen.
66
00:05:51.110 --> 00:05:54.000
Lena is determined to find it, even though the adults
67
00:05:54.040 --> 00:06:08.850
have dismissed the matter lightly. Jari tries to stay calm,
68
00:06:09.170 --> 00:06:11.449
despite fearing that they will get caught in their snooping.
69
00:06:12.529 --> 00:06:19.660
Tuuli, heidän ystävänsä naapurista, on mukana, ja hänen kasvoillaan on
70
00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:21.339
salaperäinen ilme.
71
00:06:23.129 --> 00:06:25.790
Tuli, their friend from next door, is with them, and
72
00:06:25.810 --> 00:06:34.839
there is a mysterious expression on her face. She knows something,
73
00:06:34.899 --> 00:06:35.240
but what?
74
00:06:35.259 --> 00:06:39.399
They walk through quiet streets where the dim light of
75
00:06:39.420 --> 00:06:52.560
street lamps casts shadows on the walls of houses. Leena
76
00:06:52.660 --> 00:06:59.620
on varustautunut lyhdyllä, jonka valo hyppii syksynlehtien seassa eteenpäin.
77
00:07:01.370 --> 00:07:04.189
Leena is equipped with a lantern, whose light skips through
78
00:07:04.209 --> 00:07:05.209
the autumn leaves ahead.
79
00:07:06.350 --> 00:07:12.470
He päätyvät tuulin pihalle, jossa vanha vaja seisoo kuin odottamassa.
80
00:07:14.089 --> 00:07:16.540
They end up in Tully's yard, where an old shed
81
00:07:16.569 --> 00:07:17.600
stands as if waiting.
82
00:07:18.779 --> 00:07:21.740
Leena avaa vajan oven varovasti.
83
00:07:23.500 --> 00:07:25.209
Lena carefully opens the shed door.
84
00:07:26.459 --> 00:07:33.199
Sisältä paljastuu hämmentävä näky. Puun oksilla roikkuu nauhoja, ja niiden
85
00:07:33.259 --> 00:07:38.579
keskellä on Mr. Whiskers, rauhallisena ja hyvän tuulisena.
86
00:07:40.339 --> 00:07:44.180
Inside, a bewildering sight unfolds. Ribbons hang from the branches,
87
00:07:44.620 --> 00:07:47.160
and in their midst is Mr. Whiskers, calm and content.
88
00:07:48.379 --> 00:07:57.620
Sen edessä seisoo tuulin pieni veli, In.
89
00:07:57.579 --> 00:08:00.620
Front of it stands Tuli's little brother, who is excitedly
90
00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:01.480
playing with the cat.
91
00:08:01.500 --> 00:08:11.079
I found him. He's hiding here playing, the boy explains proudly.
92
00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:25.360
Leena huokaisi helpotuksesta, kun hän rapsuttaa kissan pehmeää turkkia.
93
00:08:27.060 --> 00:08:29.970
Leena sighs with relief as she pats the cat's soft fur.
94
00:08:31.170 --> 00:08:39.659
Mr. Whiskers katsoo heitä suurin silmin ja heilauttaa iloisesti häntäänsä. Mr.
95
00:08:39.700 --> 00:08:42.419
Whiskers looks at them with big eyes and happily wags
96
00:08:42.480 --> 00:08:42.919
his tail.
97
00:08:44.120 --> 00:08:50.230
Se oli vain väärinkäsitys. Tuuli naurahtaa ja hymyilee ystävilleen.
98
00:08:51.990 --> 00:08:55.220
It was just a misunderstanding. Tully laughs and smiles at
99
00:08:55.250 --> 00:08:55.740
her friends.
100
00:08:56.940 --> 00:09:01.419
Leena tuijottaa ystäväänsä hetken ja nyökkää sitten.
101
00:09:03.179 --> 00:09:06.059
Leena stares at her friend for a moment and then nods.
102
00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:12.620
Koko seikkailu tuntuu yhtäkkiä naurettavan yksinkertaiselta.
103
00:09:14.340 --> 00:09:17.039
The whole adventure suddenly feels ridiculously simple.
104
00:09:18.230 --> 00:09:24.909
Hän on oppinut, että ongelmien ratkaisemiseen tarvitaan sekä rohkeutta että
105
00:09:25.049 --> 00:09:26.429
ystävien apua.
106
00:09:28.149 --> 00:09:31.570
She has learned that solving problems requires both courage and
107
00:09:31.590 --> 00:09:32.409
the help of friends.
108
00:09:33.629 --> 00:09:39.289
Kun Mr. Whiskers on turvallisesti takaisin kotona ja tuuli tanssii
109
00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:41.919
taas lehtiä pitkin rivikatua.
110
00:09:46.620 --> 00:09:49.539
When Mr. Whiskers is safely back home and the wind
111
00:09:49.600 --> 00:09:53.970
dances the leaves along Rivikatu again, Lina feels strong.
112
00:09:53.970 --> 00:09:58.879
Jari grins widely. He no longer fears small adventures.
113
00:09:58.940 --> 00:09:59.350
We did it.
114
00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:28.639
Together. Together. Leena julistaa riemukkaasti ja heidän naurunsa kaikuu hiljaisessa illassa.
115
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:34.789
Lapset iloitsevat, sillä Mr.
116
00:10:34.850 --> 00:10:39.470
Whiskers on jälleen siellä, missä kuuluukin, kotona.
117
00:10:41.169 --> 00:10:44.230
The children rejoice, for Mr. Whiskers is once again where
118
00:10:44.269 --> 00:10:45.320
he belongs, at home.
119
00:10:51.679 --> 00:10:55.779
Today's vocabulary words are coming up right after this commercial break.
