4 | Barabass considers [mk] this win as a defining moment of his generation, “something to tell the grandkids about.” | Barabass dia mandray [mk] ity fandresena ity ho fotoana hamaritra ny andian-taranaka misy azy, “zavatra ho tantaraina an'ireo zafikely.” |
5 | Ruling politicians have scrambled to get on the basketball victory bandwagon. | Nihazakazaka ireo mpanao politika eo amin'ny fitondrana mba ho ao anatin'ilay fiarandalambin'ny fandresena tamin'ny lalao basketball. |
6 | The president already gave a medal to the national team in absentia, while the government used taxpayers' money to buy tickets for 150 hand-picked “professional fans” [mk] to go to the game. | Efa nanome mariboninahitra ho an'ny ekipam-pirenena sahady ny filoha tany absentia, raha nampiasa ny volan'ireo mpandoa hetra kosa ny governemanta mba hividianana tapakila ho an'ireo “mpankafy matihanina” natao an-tsapaka [mk] mba hijery ny lalao. |

11 | Social media users spread the following joke, referring to the general low level of knowledge about Macedonia in geographic terms outside of the Balkan region (most Macedonians who have been abroad can share a story about meeting people who had no clue where it was, or said it was an island in Africa or something to that effect). | Ireo mpampiasa media sosialy dia nanely ity hatsikana manaraka ity, maka ohatra amin'ny hakelin'ny fahalalàna an'iMasedonia raha resaka ara-jeografia ivelan'ny faritra Balkan (maro amin'ireo Masedoniana izay nipetraka tany ivelany no afaka mizara tantara momba ny fifanenàny tamin'ny olona tsy mahalala ny misy izany, ka na niteny fa nosy iray any Afrika izany, na zavatra tahaka an'izany). |

16 | Twitter users in the past few days have however, expressed aggravation due to the uncalled-for demeaning comments in some media from these countries. | Nefa na dia izany aza, ireo mpampiasa Twitter dia naneho ny fihomboan'ny resaka noho ireo tsikera manala-baraka sy diso fipetraka ataon'ny media sasany avy amin'ireo firenena ireo. |
