1 | Azerbaijan: From Carpets to Socks | Azerbaijan: Miala amin'ny karipetra mankany amin'ny bàn-kiraro |
2 | There are a few fascinating things about Azerbaijani culture that make locals immensely proud and eager to showcase to foreigners visiting the country. | Misy zavatra kely tena mahavariana mikasika ny kolotsaina Azerbaijani izay tena ireharehan'ny eo an-toerana be mihitsy ary ezahan-dry zareo ny mampiseho azy amin'ny vahiny izay mitsidika ny firenena. |
3 | One of them is carpets, usually presented to guests as a sign of hospitality, laid under the feet as a sign of respect, or hung on the wall as a sign of prosperity. | Iray amin'izany ny karipetra, izay naseho hatramin'izay ireo vahiny ho famantarana ny fahaizana mandray olona, atao eo ambany ny tongotra ho mari-panajàna, na ahantona amin'ny rindirna ho mariky ny fivoarana. |
4 | No wonder that Azerbaijani carpets were last year inscribed on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO and often attract the attention of bloggers. | Tsy dia misy mahafantatra loatra fa ny karipetra avy any Azerbaijan dia voasoratra ho ao anatin'ny Lisitry fanehoana ny Kolotsaina Nolovaina Hatramin'izay Tsy Mety Miovan'ny Taranak'olombelona (Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity) tamin'ny herintaona izay nokarakarain'ny UNESCO ary matetika manintona ny sain'ny mpitoraka bilaogy. |

6 | Aaron in Azerbaijan, for example, says the art and craft of Azerbaijan takes an important place in the history of the country while noting its different and unique styles. | Aaron avy any Azerbaijan, ohatra, dia milaza fa tena manana toerana lehibe eo amin'ny tantaran'ny firenena ny zava-kanto sy ny sary sikotra any raha mijery ny mahasamihafa azy sy ny endriny tokana. |
7 | The blog also says the legacy of carpets stretches beyond the country's borders and intertwines with the regional traditions of the South Caucasus. | Milaza ihany koa ilay bilaogy fa mandeha mihoatra ny sisintanin'ny firenena ny lazan'ny karipetra ary mifanaraka amin'ny fomba amam-panao rezionalin'ny Kaokazy Atsimo. |
8 | Azerbaijan is proud of its carpet-weaving history, as it should be. | Mirehareha amin'ny karipetrany izay mitondra ny onjan'ny tantara i Azerbaijan, izay ara-drariny. |
9 | The deep colors and intricate designs are a testament to incredible technical and artistic skill going back hundreds, if not thousands, of years. | Ny loko mafàna sy ny kisarisary hafakely no hafatra teknika tsy lefy sy ny fahaiza manao ara-javakanto izay mbola miverina aman-jatony na anarivo taona mihitsy aza. |
10 | Regional and ethnic nuance within carpet design make for a bursting diversity of aesthetics. | Mametraka ny endriny maha hafa kely ny karipetra ny tsy fitoviana kely eo amin'ny faritra sy ny foko. |
11 | There are specific schools of carpets that are classified as Talysh here in southern Azerbaijan or Garabağ out in western Azerbaijan or as Quba up in the north. | Misy sekoly voatokana mihitsy mikasika ny karipetra izay nosokajiana ho Talysh aty atsimon'i Azerbaijan na Garabağ mivoaka mankany atsinanan'i Azerbaijan na ny Quba any amin'ny faritra avaratra. |
12 | […] Certainly, the carpet culture goes beyond just Azerbaijan, a cultural feature throughout the Caucasus in Armenia and Georgia, too, and further into Central Asia and the Middle East. | […] Inoana aloha hoe, mandeha hihoatra an'i Azerbaijan ny kolotsain'ny karipetra, kolotsaina misongadina manerana an'i Kaokazy any Armenia sy Zeorzia, ihany koa, ary lavidavitra kokoa any Azia Afovoany sy Afovoany Atsinanana. |
13 | Yet it would be a shame to not acknowledge Azerbaijan's excellence in carpet-weaving. | Na izany aza, hanjary henatra ihany ny tsy hahalala ny hakanton'ny fandrariana ny karipetran'i Azerbaijan. |
14 | CBT in Azerbaijan, a travel blog by Peace Corps Volunteers in Azerbaijan, also examines the tradition of carpet weaving and gets to experience it first hand in the north of the country. | CBT any Azerbaijan, bilaogy mpandehandeha an'i Mpilatsaka an-tsitrapon'ny Peace Corps any Azerbaijan, ihany koa dia nandalina ny fomban-drazana fandrariana ny karipetra ary niaina izany traikefa izany voalohany tany avaratry ny firenena. |
15 | Carpet sales are a big business in Azerbaijan and one that is highly regulated by the government. | Tena fidiram-bola be ny fivarotana karipetra any Azerbaijan ary isan'ny iray izay tena arindran'ny governemanta. |
16 | Every carpet that leaves the nation's borders must first be registered and assigned its own certificate of authenticity. | Ny karipetra rehetra izay miala ny sisintanin'ny firenena dia tsy maintsy voasoratra ary mahazo ny taratasy fanamarinana ny maha vita azy avy any. |
17 | People pay thousands for these things and even more to have them shipped overseas. | Mandoa vola be ny olona amin'ireny zavatra ireny ary maherin'izany aza mba hitondrana azy hiantsambo hiampita ranomasina. |
18 | But I doubt these women were thinking of all that as they weaved away. | Nefa manahy aho hoe ireo vehivavy ireo ve mihevitra izany rehetra izany raha mitondra azy ireny. |
19 | This is something they have been doing for years. | Nefa zavatra efa nataon'izy ireo efa an-taonany maro izany. |
20 | On a similar note, Sheki, Azerbaijan, a cultural blog, also touches upon the cultural traditions of weaving and knitting, but this time of mattresses and quilts, widespread in the regions of the country if slowly dying out in the capital, Baku. | Eo amin'ny lahatsoratra mitovy amin'izany, Sheki, Azerbaijan, bilaogy iray ara-kolotsaina, dia mikitika ihany koa ny fomba amam-panao ara-kolotsaina amin'ny fandrariana sy fandrandranana, fa tamin'ity indray mitoraka ity momba ny kidoro sy ondana , miparitaka amin'ny faritra maro manerana ny faritra raha tsy hoe angaha mihamaty tsikelikely ao Baku renivohitra. |
21 | […] Historically and traditionally it used to be and continues to be the case for many that an important part of bride's dowry would be mattresses and quilts that she would take with her to new family…there would be two mattresses for master bed, mattresses as a present for her in-laws, couple of mattresses for potential guests and obviously the same number of quilts and even more number of pillows… […] […] | […] Raha ara-tantara sy ara-pomba amam-panao, efa toy izany foana hatrizay sy hatramin'izao ny zava-misy ho an'ny maro hoe anisan'ny tena entana lehibe entin'ny vehivavy hanambady ny kidoro sy ny ondana izay ho entiny eo amin'ny fianakaviany vaovao…tokony misy kidoro roa ho an'ny fandrian'izy ireo, fandriana no fanomezana hoan'ireo ho rafozaniny, kidoro roa ho an'ireo vahininy efa mahazatra ary mazava ho azy toy izany koa ny ondana sy ondan-dava na mety betsaka aza… […] […] |
22 | Its a particular honour for the guest to be offered a mattress or quilt that newly came with bride's dowry… In Baku fewer bride's would care to have extra mattress or quilt…everything is mainly bought ready… […] | Tena voninahitra hafa mihitsy ho an'ny vahiny ny omena kidoro sy ondana vaovao izay avy amin'ny zavatra nentin'ny vehivavy nanambady… Any Baku vehivavy hanambady vitsivitsy ihany no mandraharaha ny hanana kidoro na ondana vaovao izany…efa saika voavidy daholo ny zavatra rehetra… […] |
23 | And such traditions are not just confined to carpets. | Ary izany fomba amam-panao izany dia tsy mijanona fotsiny amin'ny karipetra ihany. |
24 | Aiming to benefit the local community, Peace Corps Volunteers in Azerbaijan have even created a special blog where you can order socks online. | Mieritreritra ny hanome tombony ny fiarahamonina eo an-toerana, ireo mpirotsaka an-tsitrapo avy amin'ny Peace Corps ao Azerbaijan dia nanangana bilaogy manokana azonareo hamandrihana ban-kiraro amin'ny alalan'ny aterineto. |
25 | And not just any socks, but a cultural specialty from the Talysh ethnic minority living in the south of Azerbaijan. | Ary tsy ban-kiraro fe ban-kiraro, fa fahaiza-manao manokana ara-kolotsaina mampiavaka ny Foko vitsy an'isa Talysh monina any atsimon'i Azerbaijan. |
