"L's Aventuthes d'Alice en EmErvil'lie" ont 'tE translatEes en un fliotchet d'langues. Et achteu, nE v'chIn eune vErsion JErriaise. LE JErriais est la langue Nouormande dE JErri, la langue dE Wace et achteu d'Alice Etout. Quand Alice Ecoute la Souothis tchi pAle dE l'histouaithe dE Dgilliaume lE ContchErant, ch'est qu'Dgilliaume, not' Duc, pAlait l'Nouormand, et qu'l'histouaithe des Ducs dE Nouormandie fut racontE en Nouormand par Wace. Et les JErriais tchi d'visent acouo dans not' langue pouOrront liEthe les aventuthes d'Alice et y r'connaItre lE bouOn viEr niolIn. -- Versions of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" have been made in many languages. And now, here is a JErriais version. JErriais is the Norman language of Jersey, the language of Wace, the 12th century Jersey-born Norman poet and historian, and now of Alice as well. When Alice listens to the Mouse talking about the history of William the Conqueror, we recall that our Duke William spoke Norman, and that the history of the Dukes of Normandy was recounted in the Norman language by Wace. And Jersey people who still speak our language will be able to read Alice's adventures and recognize some of our good old nonsense tradition in them.
