Los burros de Don Tomás

Don Tomás compra (buys) cuatro burros. Monta en (he rides on) uno y regresa (returns) a su casa.

Por el camino (along the road) los cuenta (he counts them): uno, dos y tres. No cuenta el que monta (el que monta = the one he’s riding).

Ya en su casa, dice a su mujer (he says to his wife):

— ¡Mira!, he comprado (I’ve bought) cuatro burros y cuento (I count) sólo tres; me han robado (someone has stolen) uno.
— ¡Qué raro! (How strange) Dice la mujer. ─Tú no ves más que (you only see) tres, pero yo veo (I see) cinco.
