1 | Virtual Secret Santas – the Global Voices Way | Santas Miafina Virtoaly – Ny Fomba Global Voices |
2 | A secret message from one GV virtual secret Santa in Bangladesh to his “victim” in Germany | Hafatra miafina avy amin'ny GV mpanolotra fanomezana krismasy virtoaly iray avy any India ho an'ny “lasibatra” iray any Alemaina |
3 | Around 20 Global Voices authors and translators signed up to become a virtual “Secret Santas” this year for another GV'er. | Iray amin'ny fomba fanao krismasy adaladala indrindra ny mampihiratra olona iray (tsy misy filazana anarana) amin'ny alalan'ny fanaovana zavatra tsy ampoizina mandritra ny volana desambra. |
4 | | Manodidina ny 20 teo ho eo ny mpanoratra sy mpandika lahatsoratr'i Global Voices nisoratra anarana ho “Santas Miafina” virtoaly tamin'ity taona ity ho an'ny mpikamban'ny GV iray hafa [Nisoratra anarana hanolotra fanomezana ho an'ny hafa]. |
5 | We had cheerful vibes traveling across the Internet from Egypt to Ethiopia, Pakistan to Brazil, Bangladesh to Germany. | Nahita onjam-pifaliana niampita aterineto niainga avy any Ejipta ho any Ethiopia, Pakistan mankany Brezila, India mankany Alemaina izahay. |
6 | But how do you keep someone virtually in suspense for a whole month, sending messages without revealing your identity? | Saingy ahoana moa izany no hampintaintainana olona iray [amin'ny fomba virtoaly] mandritra ny iray volana manontolo, mandefa hafatra tsy mampiseho ny anaranao? |
7 | Here are a few tips from those who tried and succeeded! | Toy izao ny tetika vitsivitsy tamin'ireo nanandrana ary nahomby! |
8 | Create a new email address and/or Twitter handle for Santa messages to your “victims”. | Manangana adiresy imailaka na twitter vaovao hanolorana hafatra krismasy amin'ny “lasibatra” handefasana fanomezana. |
9 | Then think of both tangible and intangible things to send them. | Avy eo mieritreritra zavatra azo sy tsy azo tsapain-tanana. |
10 | Surprise them with a playlist of songs, poems or an award certificate by email. | Manampoka azy amin'ny alalan'ny raki-kira, tononkalo na sertifikàn'ny loka amin'ny alalan'ny imailaka. |
11 | Give your victim witty hints of Santa's identity. | Manolotra karazana ankamantatra hamantaran'ny andefasanao fanomezana ny mombamomba ilay Santa [mpanolotra]. |
12 | Send them messages in different languages to throw them off your trail. | Mandefa hafatra amin'ny fiteny isan-karazany ao amin'ny lalanao. |
13 | Buy gifts from a local online retailer to mask your location. | Mividy fanomezana avy amin'ny mpivarotra ao an-toerana hanafenana ny toerana misy anao. |
14 | Send them a ringtone. | Mandefa feon-kira ho azy. |
15 | A hand-drawn portrait. | Sarintava vita tanana. |
16 | E-cards. | E-karatra (paositra). |
17 | Retweet their tweets. | Retweet ny tweet-ny. |
18 | And of course, there's always the option of sending a card or gift in the mail. | Ary mazava ho azy fa misy hatrany ny fahafahana misafidy mandefa karatra na fanomezana amin'ny alalan'ny mailaka. |
19 | But watch out for relying 100% on the international postal services, or you might see a message like this one: | Saingy hamarino ny fitokisana 100% ny raharaham-paositra iraisampirenena, na hahita hafatra tahaka izao manaraka izao ianao: |
20 | Solaaaaa, my santaaaa forgot meeee | Solaaaa, nanadino ahy ny santaaaako |
21 | In the end, the whole thing has less to do with Christmas (which several Santas don't even celebrate) and all to do with inspiring friendship and community across borders and enjoying an opportunity to be creative. | Tany amin'ny farany moa dia tsy nisy ifandraisany tamin'ny krismasy (fa maro amin'ireo mpanao fanomzana aza no tsy mankalaza krismasy) akory ilay zavatra fa mipaka lalina kosa amin'ny finamanana sy ny fikambanana miampita sisintany sy fahazoana manararaotra manao zavatra vaovao. |
22 | From all who were not “forgotten” GV Santas got rave reviews: | Ho an'ireo rehetra tsy “adino” nahazo tsikera feno fandokafana ireo GV Santas [mpanolotra fanomezana krismasy]: |
23 | My Santa was extremely witty and kept sending me cool hints about herself and where she comes from. | Mahatsikaiky ahy tokoa ilay nanolotra fanomezana krismasy ho ahy ary nampiseho marika vitsivitsy ahafantarana an-dravehivavy sy hoe avy aiza izy. |
24 | Very very creative. | Tena mahay manao zavatra. |
25 | Loved the entire experience :) | Tiako ilay tantara iray manontolo |
26 | My Santa is the most amazing one I've ever had. | Anisan'ny tena mahatalanjona indrindra tsy mbola fahitako hatrizay ny mpanolotra fanomezana krismasy ahy. |
27 | Made me smile with thoughtful gifts and messages. | Nampitsiky ahy amin'ny alalan'ny fanomezana sy hafatra misy isainana. |
28 | Thing is… I still don't know who she/he is!!! | Hitako ilay zavatra… fa tsy mbola fantatro mihitsy hoe iza izy!!! |
29 | Come out dear Santa! :) | Mivoaha ry Santa ô! |
