1 | Slovakia's Roads: “Adopt a Pothole and Watch It Grow” | Lalana Ao Slovakia: “Asiana Lavaka Sy Hitazana ny Fitomboan'izany” |
2 | This year, the situation on Slovakia's roads is bad. | Tamin'ity taona ity, ratsy dia ratsy ny toetry ny lalana ao Slovakia. |
3 | On the average, it is probably worse than a year ago. | Raha jerena, mbola ratsy kokoa noho ny tamin'ny taon-dasa. |
4 | On Feb. 28, SME newspaper wrote [sk] that in Košice county in Eastern Slovakia alone, there are over 37,000 square meters of potholes, even though the winter is still not over. | Tamin'ny 28 Febroary, nanoratra [sk] ny gazety SME fa ao amin'ny faritra Košice, ao Atsinanan'i Slovakia fotsiny dia ahitana lavaka amin'ny arabe mirefy 37.000 metatra toradroa, kanefa mbola tsy tapitra akory ny ririnina. |
5 | Zoltán Bartos, the director of the local Road Administration, said that when they were not able to fix potholes [quickly], they had to mark them using warning road signs. | Nilaza i Zoltán Bartos, talen'ny Fitantanana ny Lalana ao an-toerana fa tsy afaka manamboatra [haingana] ireo lavaka amin'ny arabe ny sampan-draharahany, tokony hampahafantarin'izy ireo amin'ny takelaby fampitandremana izany. |
6 | Recently, drivers have been destroying these signs to avoid police fines for speeding, or to be able to get compensation for damaged cars from their insurance companies. | Vao haingana, nosimban'ireo saofera ireo takelaby mba hialana amin'ny onitra takian'ny polisy noho ny hafainganam-pandeha tafahoatra, na mba ahazoana onitra avy amin'ny mpiantoka azy ireo noho ny fahasimban'ny fiarany. |
7 | That's why workers have already started taking pictures of the newly-installed warning signs. | Izany indrindra no antony nahatonga ireo mpiasa misahana ny arabe sy lalana naka sary ireo takelaby fampitandremana napetraka vao haingana. |
8 | Below are some of the comments from SME.sk's readers. | Indreto fanehoan-kevitra sasany avy amin'ireo mpamaky ny SME.sk. |

10 | I wonder how much this pothole documenting costs. | Manontany ny vidin'ny fanamboarana amin'ity lavaka amin'ny arabe ity aho. |
11 | ienko: | ienko: |
12 | and what if road workers buy one sign and then take a photo with it at 25 different places? | ary raha mividy takelaby tokana ireo mpiasan'ny arabe ary avy eo maka sary miaraka amin'izany eny amin'ny toerana 25 samihafa ? |
13 | Jirkohu: | Jirkohu: |
14 | Repair the potholes well and permanently and this new phenomenon will disappear. | Tsentsemana tsara ny lavaka ary atao maharitra mba hampanjavona izao zava-baovao izao. |
15 | Ján Divno: | Ján Divno: |
16 | In Switzerland, where they have similar if not worse weather - heat, winter, water, snow - and you won't find a single patch on the road! | Ao Soisa, izay misy toetr'andro mitovy, na toetr'andro ratsy kokoa -hafanana, ririnina, rano, oram-panala - tsy hahita lavaka tampenana eny amin'ny arabe ianao na dia iray aza! |
17 | I don't know how they do it, but there are no potholes! | Tsy fantatro izay zavatra ataony, saingy tsy ahitana lavaka mihitsy ny arabe ! |
18 | leomir: | leomir: |
19 | I'm driving along the potholes, and suddenly - a road! | Mitondra fiara amin'ny arabe feno lavaka aho, ary tampoka teo - lalana! |
20 | In another discussion [sk], users have calculated that in Slovakia €85,000 in car- and road-related fees and taxes are collected annually per each road kilometer. | Taminà adihevitra hafa [sk], nanisa ireo mpampiasa arabe ao Slovakia fa €85,000 no voahangona isan-taona amin'ny haban-dalana sy hetra alaina amin'ny fiara isaky ny arabe iray kilometatra. |
21 | Here is a dashboard camera video of a first-class road near Domaša in Eastern Slovakia: | Ity lahatsary ahitana ny arabem-pirenena eo akaikin'i Domaša ao Atsinanan'i Slovakia: |
22 | Many other examples can be easily found by searching “výtlky 2013″ (“potholes 2013″) at images.google.sk. | Maro ireo ohatra hafa mora tadiavina amin'ny alalan'ny fikarohana ny “výtlky 2013″ (“lavaka amin'ny arabe 2013″) ao amin'ny images.google.sk. |
23 | Here is a joke popular with the Slovak netizens these days: | Ity vazivazy malaza avy amin'ireo olom-pirenena Slovaky tamin'io andro io: |
24 | An Englishman asks a Slovak: “Which side of the road do you drive on here? | Teratany anglisy iray nanontany Slovaky iray hoe: “Aiza amin'ny arabe no hitondrana ny fiara? |
25 | Left or right? | Ankavia sa ankavanana? |
26 | The Slovak responds: “‘Round the holes, buddy!” | Hoy ilay Slovaky namaly: “‘Manodidina ny lavaka, ry lahy antitra!” |
27 | The image below comes from Diery.sk [sk], a crowdsourced map of potholes that initially covered only Slovakia's capital, Bratislava, but from the end of this week will display information provided by users in other parts of the country: | Avy amin'i Diery.sk [sk] ity sary eto ambany ity, sarintany ifandrimbonana ahitana ireo lavaka amin'ny arabe ao amin'ny faritra andrenivohitr'i Slovakia, Bratislava, saingy amin'ny fiafaran'ity herinandro ity, hanome vaovao avy amin'ireo mpampiasa ny arabe eny amin'ny faritra hafa ao amin'ny firenena izy: |
28 | How to recognize a drunk driver - in Austria and Slovakia? | Ahoana no ahafantarana fa nisotro toaka ilay mpamily fiara - ao Aotrishy sy Slovakia? |

30 | A pothole documentation project [sk] launched by Nový čas [New Time] newspaper, has recycled this viral phrase for its title: | Tetikasa fanadihadiana momba ny lavaka amin'ny arabe [sk] navoakan'ny gazety Nový čas [New Time], nampiasa ity fehezanteny malaza ity tamin'ny lohateniny: |
31 | Adopt a pothole and watch it grow… | Ataovy ny lavaka amin'ny arabe ary tazano ny fitomboan'izany… |
32 | A recently established RSS Daily, a mock news outlet inspired by one of Slovak President's gaffes (more about it in this GV text), quotes [sk] a non-existing deputy of the Union of Slovak Car Services who thinks that pothole repairs carried out in some cities are irresponsible and discourage drivers from making timely overhauls of their cars: | Fanadihadiana vao haingana notontosain'ny RSS Daily, vaovao “parodia”( maka tahaka saingy amin'ny fomba maneso) nalaina avy amin'iray amin'ireo hadalan'ny Filoha Slovaky (mitantara betsaka momba izany ao amin'ity lahatsoratry GV ity), nilaza momba an'ilay solontena tsy misy ao amin'ny Fikambanan'ny Mpitantana Garazy Slovaky izay mihevitra fa tsy mba misy fandraisan'andraikitra amin'ny fanamboarana ireo lavaka amin'ny arabe ao an-tanàna sasany hany ka manakana ireo mpitondra fiara tsy hanamboatra ny hanamarina ara-teknika ny fiarany amin'ny fotoana mety: |
33 | Often just a torn-off wheel reveals a much more serious fault with the car. | Matetika miteraka fahasimbana be amin'ny fiara ny kodiarana miala |
34 | But just as life is often stranger than fiction, so is real-life news compared to fake news. | Satria hafahafa kokoa noho ny zava-foronina ny zava-misy eo amin'ny fiainana, tahaka izany ihany koa ireo vaovao tena misy raha oharina amin'ny vaovao foronina, na vaovao diso. |
35 | Last year, musician Milan Capák lost patience with the holes on the sidewalks of his city Rožňava in Eastern Slovakia and started repairing them on his own and at his own cost, later continuing with the potholes on the roads. | Tamin'ny taon-dasa, tsy naharitra intsony ilay mpanakanto Milan Capák noho ireo lavaka eny amin'ny lalana fandehanan'ny mpandeha tongotra ao an-tanànany ao Rožňava, Atsinanan'i Slovakia ka lasa nanamboatra izany tamin'ny fandaniany manokana izy, avy eo indray nanamboatra ireo lavaka tamin'ny arabe. |
36 | German ARD TV did a story about Capák's selfless initiative. | Nanatontosa lahatsary fanadihadiana [amin'ny teny alemana] momba ny fisantarana andraikitra mahafatra-po nataon'i Capák ny fahitalavitra German ARD. |
37 | Later, however, a city official sent him a letter [sk], requesting him to stop his work - because he was using the wrong technologies and was making repairs on the land that was not his property. | Taty aoriana, na dia izany aza, nandefa taratasy [sk] ho azy ny kaominina, nangataka taminy mba hanatsahatra ny fanamboarana - satria teknolojia tsy sahaza no nampiasany ary tany tsy fananany no namboariny. |
