מתני׳ <big><strong>הקורא</strong></big> את המגילה למפרע לא יצא קראה על פה קראה תרגום בכל לשון לא יצא אבל קורין אותה ללועזות בלעז והלועז ששמע אשורית יצא

Mishnah: He who reads the Megillah in an irregular manner, does not fulfill his obligation; If he read it by heart, or read a translation in any language [other than Hebrew] he did not fulfill his obligation. But we do read it in a foreign language to those who [only] understand a foreign language; and someone who only knows a foreign language who heard [the Megillah] in Hebrew has fulfilled his obligation.
