    Translation

    Ravel's Bolero.

    Vocabulary

    • bolero — bolero (a musical form and dance; also a short jacket)
    • Ravel — Maurice Ravel, French composer (genitive: Ravela)

    Grammar note

    'Ravela' is the genitive of 'Ravel' — expressing possession ('Ravel's Bolero'). The phrase is a noun phrase, not a full sentence. The alternation of 'l' and 'r' in both words is the phonetic challenge.
