This lesson teaches the days of the week. Note the spoken word for week is ???????; here the formal, usually written, term ??????? is used. Likewise "Thursday in everyday speech is ????????, but the formal term is ???????????.
Three semantic doublets appear: "fields" ??????; "neat and tidy, well-behaved, ready" ?????????; and "disordered, confused" ?????
Notice that the double function of using a primary school text to teach literacy and to socialize the student, i.e. inculcate values, such as being neat and tidy and not "blocking the way" ????????.
Note also the grammatical function of ????, used alone or in a series of "some of this, some of that." Compare the pattern of repetition of ???? with ????? "lots of buyers, lots of sellers."
The word ???? has several meanings: "with" or "at the same time"; when followed by a noun it means "with" or "together"; when used at the end of a sentence, as is the case in this lesson, it means "also" or "too."
