Pronunciation: un ree kwyt ab bil

Sentence: Trying to gently turn him down, Maria told Kermit that there was a language barrier between them. Kermit cared not at all. She told him that she did not know if she was ready for tadpoles.

He looked despondent and afraid that he might go off and croak, she watched him hop up to a pretty girl on the road. The pretty girl bent down and kissed Kermit and poof! didn't he turn into a tall handsome Prince? He turned to Maria and said, "When I said "ribbit" it does not mean "I love you"...it means "Kiss me and become my Princess!" Maria toadally got it wrong!
