i need to know what the woman says here:

http://www.dna2006.org/desafio/etapas/swf_questoes/audio_idfgdfgdgiomas_dssdfgsutropdasd_q08.mp3

i could notice four words, the first hitsuji, the second usagui, the third i don't know and the fourth shima-uma...
i don't if my conclusions are right, but i need these words to complete 29 characters, including the spaces..
something like:

hitsuji usagui _ _ _ _ shima-uma = 29 chars

i've just started studying japanese, so i'm not a good japanese listener =P

thank's in advance!

The third word is らくだ (rakuda) which means "camel".

BTW, it's spelled "usagi"...

hitsuji usagi rakuda shimauma

That looks like 29 with spaces to me.

We are dealing with characters which means roomaji and there are different romanization systems in use. Different systems may have different lengths for some syllables.
