    A frog is a wee beast with four legs which lives both in water and on land. He is brown, green, or yellow, or if he is tropical, he may be diverse colors. He has lungs and gills both. He haches from an egg and he then is a tadpole. He grows to be a frog if he is not eaten.

        That is arguable. I wouldn’t want to rob it of its flavor. ‘Wee beast’ is unusual, but it’s fine English already.

          The argument - that I don’t particularly care about, just idling commenting - is would that be translation or transliteration.

      “Hatches from an egg” caught me up a bit but I could read this otherwise

      You don’t care but I was excited
