Император любит новые наряды
The emperor loves new clothes
Russian
Давным-давно жил император, который очень любил новую одежду. Он тратил на неё все свои деньги и хотел только одного: всегда быть красиво одетым. Он не заботился о солдатах и не интересовался театром. Зато он любил ездить в карете и показывать всем свой новый костюм.
English translation
Long ago, there lived an emperor who loved new clothes very much. He spent all his money on them and wanted only one thing: to always be beautifully dressed. He did not care about his soldiers or take an interest in the theater. But he loved riding in his carriage and showing everyone his new outfit.
Russian
Для каждого часа дня у него была другая одежда. Он проводил очень много времени в гардеробной — комнате, где хранились его наряды.
English translation
He had a different outfit for every hour of the day. He spent a great deal of time in his dressing room, where his clothes were kept.
