Countries, nationalities <strong>and</strong><br />
languages<br />
There are many countries in the world, many people who live in them<br />
<strong>and</strong> many different languages spoken.<br />
1. In the box below, list at least ten different countries.<br />
The name of the country, the name we call a person from that country <strong>and</strong> the language the person<br />
speaks may all be different <strong>words</strong>. For example, a person from Brazil is called a Brazilian <strong>and</strong> the<br />
official language is Portuguese.<br />
2. Read the limericks, then write ‘C’ above the <strong>words</strong> which tell the country, ‘N’ for the<br />
nationality <strong>and</strong> ‘L’ for the language.<br />
There once was a Dane from Denmark<br />
Who loved taking walks in the park.<br />
Although he spoke Danish,<br />
His accent would vanish<br />
When he growled like a beast in the dark.<br />
3. Complete the table.<br />

There once was an old man from Irel<strong>and</strong><br />
Who loved to relate Irish legends<br />
His gran had told him.<br />
And though some were grim,<br />
His listeners enjoyed being frightened.<br />
