Translation　ちいさな翻訳屋さん

Japanese　←→　Japanese ＆ English　←→　English

　It is said that hyena transform themselves into males or females every other year.



　One day a male hyena did an awful disservice to a female hyena.

　The female hyena said,

”You have to know what you've done to me.

　You'll be given a taste of your own medicine sometime soon.”



　If you are given a hard time by those who are in the position that you are to be in shortly,

　you may as well tell this story.

　As a matter of course, real hyenas

　do not transform themselves into males or females.
