felt cloak

108 (c) mòi tə fàni i studènu sìčku i iməmi gul’àmi jəmurlùci mu vìka:mi

you can get caught in the cold, or anything. We have these big – we called them cloaks.

109 (c) təkɤ̀u kəčùlkə əmə nìe mu vìkəmi jəmurlùk ut tvà tùrskə dùmə

Like hoods, but we call it “yamurluk” (cloak). That’s a Turkish word –

110 (c) tuvà jəmurlùk izglèždə è t’à tə zəvìvə səs n’ègə c’àlu

it seems that “yamurluk” is [Turkish]. And it covers you up completely,

111 (c) səs kəčùlətə nə gləvɤ̀tə utprède kət sə zəvìjš i tòpli mnògu

with the hood on your head, and bound up in front. It keeps you really warm.

They were made of felt. Back then they fulled the cloth and it got very thick,

153 (a) ə təkòs abɛ̀ abɛ̀ abɛ̀ gòrnə dr’èha abɛ̀ mu vìkəhm’e

well, [it’s] this “aba”. “Aba, aba” a felt cloak. We call it “aba”.

156 (a) pək nìj mu š vìkəhm’e tugàs i vìnəgi t’ɛ̀j b’ɛ̀še abɛ̀

But back then we se- called it, and it’s always been [for us], the “aba”.

159 (GK) a nə dòlu nə kòlko bɛ̀ dɛ̀lgo?

And how long was it? How [far] down [did it go]?

160 (a) kət pàlto tò du təd’às tɤ̀j

Like a coat, about down to here.

162 (a) do tùkə du màlko tɛ̀j ut krɛ̀stə màlku

To here, to here. A little here, a little below the waist.

163 (GK) do kɤ̀lkite

To the thighs [then].

164 (a) ja ja no, ə a tɛ̀j ə tòlkus du kɛ̀lkite tɛ̀j

Well, yes, uh – ah there! Just that much. To the thighs – there.

166 (a) tùkə ɛ̀ tùkə tɛ̀j abɛ̀

Here, yes, here. That’s [the] “aba”.
