1 | Hosting the World Cup or Olympics Isn't All Fun and Games. | Tsy Lalao Sy Fanalan'Andro Fotsiny Ny Mondialy Na Olaimpika. |
2 | This Website Breaks It Down | Noravan'Ity Habaka Ity Izany |

4 | Think teams are the only ones who can win or lose at the FIFA World Cup or the Olympics? | Eritrereto ny ekipa ihany ve no mandresy na resy amin'ny Mondialy FIFA na amin'ny lalao olaimpika? |
5 | Think again. | Eritrereto tsara. |
6 | The sporting events can be a mixed bag for the cities that host them. | Mety hitondra zavatra mifangaro ho an'ireo tanàna mandray azy ireny ny lanonam-panatanjahantena. |
7 | Sure, with millions of fans around the world tuning in to watch, hosting mega events like these can elevate the profile of the country. | Ekena tokoa fa manondrotra ny endriky ny firenena, noho ny fifantohan'ny mpankasitraka an-tapitrisany manerana izao tontolo izao ny fandraisana lanonana goavana tahaka izao. |
8 | With proper planning, they can spur the construction of useful infrastructure, too. | Amin'ny fananan'izy ireo drafitra manokana,dia afa-manorina foto-drafitrasa ilaina ihany koa izy ireo. |
9 | The 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona, which are often credited as playing an important role in making the city the modern metropolis that it is today, are held up by many as the example to follow. | Raisin'ny maro ho ohatra mendrika arahina ny lalao olaimpika notanterahina tany Barcelona tamin'ny 1992, izay matetika heverina ho mitana anjara toerana lehibe tamin'ny fananganana ny tanàna ho metropolis maroderina tahaka ny amin'izao fotoana izao. |
10 | But the events require the host city to invest an enormous amount of money that perhaps could be spent better elsewhere, like on education and health. | Saingy mila volabe tokony nampiasaina tamin-javatra hafa, tahaka ny fampianarana na ny fahasalamana, ny fandraisana lanonana tahaka itony. |
11 | People in Brazil, where the 2014 FIFA World Cup is currently underway, have protested the tournament for that very reason. | Misy olona any Brezila, izay hanatontosana ny Mondialy FIFA 2014 amin'izao fotoana izao, nanao fihetsiketseha-panoherana ity fifaninanana ity noho izany antony izany indrindra. |
12 | There's also a real risk that the investment won't pay off, and the once shining venues might one day end up decaying and abandoned. | Misy ihany koa ny risika fa mety ho tsy tafaverina ny vola nampiasaina, ary ny toerana (kianja-lapa) izay namirapiratra tao anatin'ny fotoaa iray dia mety ho kaoka sy nilaozana indray andro any. |
13 | This can make reporting these events a complicated and sensitive affair. | Izany no mahatonga ny fitaterana ireny lanonana ireny mety ho raharaha sarotra sy saro-pady. |
14 | Two researchers from the Graduate School of Design and the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Harvard University are trying to make it a little easier. | Mpikaroka roa avy amin'ny Sekoly fahazoana diplaoma momba ny Fahaiza-Mandravaka [Graduate School of Design] sy ny Sekolin'ny Injeniorà sy ny Siansa Ampiarina ao amin'ny Oniversiten'i Harvard no miezaka ny hanao izay hahatsotra azy kokoa. |
15 | The pair have launched a new website, Sport Better Cities, dedicated to explaining the good and bad of the World Cup and Olympics from the city's perspective. | Nanokatra haba-tranonkala vaovao ry zareo, Sport Better Cities, natokana hanazavana ny tsara sy ny ratsin'ny Mondialy na Lalao Olaimpika avy amin'ny fijerin'ny (hoavin'ny) tanàna. |
16 | The site packages information from media, academic and other sources into neatly compiled lists and posts, such as “Getting Realistic About the Economic Benefits of Hosting” (spoiler alert: the miracle economic boost customarily predicted before each event doesn't happen). | Angonin'ny habaka ny vaovao avy amin'ny media, ny mpampianatra ary ny loharanom-baovao ka manao azy ho lisitra na lahatsoratra voatambatambatra, tahaka ny “Getting Realistic About the Economic Benefits of Hosting” [Mahatsapa ny Zavamisy Momba ny Tombontsoa Azo Amin'ny Fampiatranoana ‘lanonana'] (fanairana: tsy nitranga akory ny fahagagana ara-toekarena lazaina mialoha ny lanonana amim-pahazarana). |
17 | The researchers assure that they aren't trying to knock sports. | Milaza ireo mpikaroka fa tsy miezaka ny handrodana ny fanatanjahantena ry zareo. |
18 | “We love football,” the site explains: | “We love football,” ilay habaka no manazava: |
19 | We want to make it easier for journalists, sports, city and other enthusiasts to see the 2014 World Cup in its urban infrastructural and historical context. | Tianay ho mora azon'ny mpanoratra gazety, mpanao fanatanjahantena, tanàna ary ireo mpientanentana hafa ny mijery ny Mondialy 2014 eo amin'ny lafiny ara-panorenana foto-drafitrasa sy ara-tantara. |
20 | We hope that this will help stimulate more conversation about how sport can lead to better cities. | Manantena izahay fa handrisika amin'ny fomba itondran'ny fanatanjahantena fifampidihana bebe kokoa amin'ny fanatsarana ny tanàna izany. |
21 | They eventually hope to “make the long-term urban development and infrastructural needs of host cities as much of a priority as hosting the Beautiful Game.” | Tokony hanantena ry zareo “hamaly ny hetaheta amin'ny fampivoarana ny tanàna mampiantrano sy ny filàna ara-potodrafitr'asa ao anatin'ny fotoana lavitr'ezaka ho laharam-pahamehana rehefa mampiantrano ny Lalao Mahafinaritra.” |
22 | Have some information worthy of sharing on the impact of hosting these events? | Manana vaovao na fampahafantarana mendrika hozaraina amin'ny fandraisana ireny lanonana ireny ve? |
23 | Sport Better Cities is accepting submissions. | Ny Sport Better Cities dia mandray ny fandraisana anjara [avy aminao]. |
