21 | Of course, the other big events of these games will be the return of the mentally challenged to the paralympic Games, the athletes are back 12 years after they last took part in the games. | Ny tena kintan'ireo lalao ireo, mazava ho azy, dia ireo sembana ara-tsaina, izay nanamarika ny fiverenany taorian'ny 12 taona tsy nahitàna azy. |
22 | In France, only a regional television channel will broadcast all of the events. | Any Frantsa, fantsom-pahitalavitra “kely” iray monja no mba handefa manontolo ireo taranja rehetra. |
