Multilinguals
361 Stories in Multiple Languages
What are Multilinguals?
Multilinguals are essentially the 361 stories of The Red Well-Read Reader, commonly grouped into 10 sets of 36 stories. There are two kinds of sets. One kind is black and white, and the other colored-coded. The former is for students learning a foreign language, and the latter, for students learning English. With either kind, the word that's being read aloud is highlighted in yellow on a light-blue line. Being that Multilinguals are for students who have already acquired considerable reading ability, they are devoid of illustrations. Plus, as such, translation problems are slim to nil.
Which Memberships have access to Multilinguals?
Only Palladium, the top tier regular membership.
How can Multilinguals be read aloud?
There are four ways to do so:
-
Directly on this very page.
-
On the Immersive Reader platform.
-
On either Google Translate or Bing Translate.
-
On a MS Word document.
-
On all these platforms, multilinguals may be translated into a number of additional languages; however, for translation fidelity English should be used for all translations.

Story 1: Nabbed
"No thanks, no sweets!" said Doctor McNabb. "Not a slab, not even a dab. You see I am trying to lose some flab. Therefore, I eat just crab, and I drink just Tab. Now please bring me my bill, or call it a tab if you will. But let's not confab, or in other words gab, for I must hasten back to my lab.”
As his waitress left to tally his tab, McNabb continued to blab, saying something about taking a stab, at not paying his tab.
Then he fled outside and quickly grabbed a cab. But thanks to the police he was soon nabbed, a criminal tabbed. From then on, his life was dreary and drab.
