After some time he went to see a doctor and said. «Can you make my wife speak?» «Perhaps I can», said the doctor, «the operation is difficult, but if I try, I\'ll do my best». «Of course, you may try», said the husband, «I\'ll bring her tomorrow». The next day the doctor made the operation and the dumb wife began to speak. She spoke so much and so loudly that in a few hours her husband ran back to the doctor and said, «Can you make my wife dumb again?» «No», said the doctor, «there are many ways to make a dumb woman speak, but no ways to make a woman stop talking». «What must I do?» said the man», «I shall soon die if I have to listen to her all day long». «Well», said the doctor, «I can\'t make her dumb, but I can make you deaf and you will not have to listen to her». «Very well», said the man, «you may do so. It will be better than the other way».

Answer 1

                                                    Немая жена

У одного мужчины жена была немой, и это очень огорчало его, потому что он очень ее любил. Через некоторое время он пошел к врачу и сказал:

— Можете ли вы сделать так, чтобы моя жена заговорила?

— Возможно, могу, — сказал врач, — операция сложная, но если я попытаюсь, я сделаю все возможное.

— Конечно, вы можете попытаться, — сказал муж, — я приведу ее завтра.

На следующий день врач сделал операцию, и немая жена заговорила. Она говорила так много и так громко, что через несколько часов ее муж прибежал к врачу и спросил:

— Можете ли вы снова сделать мою жену немой?

— Нет, — ответил врач, — есть много способов сделать немую женщину говорящей, но нет способов заставить женщину перестать говорить.

— Что же мне делать? — спросил мужчина, —я скоро умру, если мне придется слушать ее весь день.

— Ну, — сказал врач, — я не могу сделать ее немой, но я могу сделать вас глухим, и вам не придется ее слушать.

— Очень хорошо, — сказал мужчина, — вы можете сделать это. Так будет лучше.

Answer 2

Once there was a man whose wife couldn't speak, which made him very sad because he loved her very much. He went to a doctor and asked if he could make his wife speak. The doctor said it was possible but difficult and agreed to try. The next day, after the operation, the wife spoke so much and so loudly that the husband asked the doctor if he could make her dumb again. The doctor explained there was no way to do that but suggested making the husband deaf instead. The man agreed, as it was a better option than listening to his talkative wife all day long.
