I like snow but I'd rather live somewhere where beautiful plants live and where it stays green all year.

What is "snow?"

Sno du way, an kol. It luk sem poda. Wen yu toc it, it tahn wota. Wen it a nof kol, it fol ota skay steda ren. Mos taym, sno fol ota skay wen taym kol "winta". Winta u kol taym a ye.

De som lan, o som pah a lan, it a sno de gwon olda taym. Oba de mos lan, wen winta lef gon, it tahn wohm an sno tahn wota.

Snow is white, and cold. It looks like powder. When you touch it, it turns into water. When it's very cold, it falls from the sky instead of rain. Most of the time, snow falls from the sky during a time called "winter". In some countries, when it's winter snow doesn't fall every year, and when it snows, it may snow just a bit. In other countries, lots of snow fall, covering the ground and the trees and the houses, a few meters thick even. The whole wold is white. In some countries, or some parts of countries, there's always snow on the ground. But in most countried, when winter is gone, it gets warm and snow turns into water.
