13 (a) [0:17] Balkan villages, there was another “Poplar [village]”. But our village

14 (a) [0:21] gets its name from – Here is this high place up at the top,

15 (a) [0:27] it’s called “Krŭklare” (“The Forty”), “Krŭklare”.

19 (VZh) [Yes,] “kŭrk” is “forty.” Right?

20 (a) [0:35] Forty.

21 (c) [0:35] Yes, that’s right.

22 (b) [0:35] Forty kings.

23 (a) [0:36] It’s told that back in the old days here, supposedly

24 (a) [0:38] in the Turkish times when there was some “Kralyo the rebel”.

25 (c) [0:42] [unintelligible]

26 (a) [0:44] the rebel leader.” I know this from my grandfather, my grandfather:
