[01:28]Host: You didn't learn Kurdish?

[01:29]Lebanese Woman: Meaning a little... a tiny bit.

[01:32]Host: A tiny bit?

[01:33]Lebanese Woman: Yes... a little, a tiny bit, as you say.

[01:36]Host: Yes, the mother is from Lebanon.

[01:39]Host: She says for thirty, thirty-five years she has been a bride of this village.

[02:28]Host: After that we will move on to the food you have now.

[02:30]Older Woman: Oh, no... in the past how much variety of food there was... what food did we use to make before?

[02:35]Older Woman: We used to make meatball (kufte), we made garlic-yogurt pasta (sarmîsok), we made pear stew (hûrmane)...

[02:53]Older Woman: We used to make dinners like that back then.

[02:55]Older Woman: For our occasions, our weddings... when we went to funerals... we made dinners/meals like that.

[02:59]Older Woman: What... what can a small person (humble person)... do?

[03:02]Older Woman: Well, even now, those are our dinners/meals. Kurds and Kurmanji people have these.

[03:05]Older Woman: We don't know much else.

[03:06]Host: That's it.

[03:07]Host: You are from this village, you...

[03:18]Host: Welcome to your arrival. Welcome to your arrival.

[03:23]Third Woman: Be healthy.

[03:25]Host: So we want... to get to know this food.

[03:27]Third Woman: Yes.

[03:28]Host: They don't just say soup... I don't know, there is yogurt one, lentil one, I don't know what implies.

[03:32]Host: So which soup do they make here? And what goes into it?

[03:35]Third Woman: Well, we make yogurt soup (Shurbe Doni).

[03:37]Third Woman: And chickpeas go into it, and wheat goes into it, and yogurt.

[03:40]Third Woman: And from the village of our forefathers and ancestors, they have made this soup.

[03:44]Third Woman: And still... they say the Shurba family made this soup.

[03:48]Third Woman: And they served it to the people... and ate it themselves too.

[03:52]Third Woman: And welcome to your arrival, and to the friends, you are on our heads and on our eyes (most welcome).

[03:56]Host: Be healthy. So firstly what did you do?

[03:58]Third Woman: We put wheat... put wheat and put chickpeas in it.

[04:02]Third Woman: And that's it, it's yogurt.

[04:03]Host: The yogurt is good, when it gets liquidy, boiled... you did your thing.

[04:06]Third Woman: What? Yes, we haven't done that yet. We brought the yogurt soup (Shurbe Doni).

[04:09]Host: So how much... is required until it is on the fire... for the food to be ready?

[04:13]Third Woman: Well like... it needs an hour.

[04:16]Host: So this is finished?

[04:17]Third Woman: Yes, indeed.

[04:18]Host: Just finished.

[04:19]Third Woman: It finished, done.

[04:20]Host: Where is it?

[04:22]Third Woman: Let look at it, let it cool down, let it get a bit thicker.

[04:25]Host: Now... what is this food? This... soup?

[04:27]Third Woman: This is Labaniyeh (Yogurt stew).

[04:28]Host: This is also Labaniyeh?

[04:29]Third Woman: And that is Shurbe Doni (Wheat Yogurt Soup).

[04:31]Host: That one?

[04:32]Third Woman: Labaniyeh, meaning "Berkufto" (With meatballs).

[04:34]Host: Meaning with meatballs. And that one is Shurbe Doni.

[04:36]Third Woman: And that is Sarma (Stuffed leaves). That is cabbage sarma and grape leaf sarma.

[04:41]Third Woman: And over there... Freekeh soup (roasted green wheat).

[04:44]Third Woman: And meat is on it, almonds are on it. We will serve it now, with goodness, we will attend to that conversation too.

[04:51]Host: We return to you as well.

[04:53]Host: Go ahead.

[04:54]Host: Just asking you a question. What is the difference between the customs and traditions of the Kurds, and the Lebanese customs and traditions?

[05:00]Lebanese Woman: Mm...

[05:01]Host: For example in weddings?

[05:02]Lebanese Woman: In everything.

[05:03]Host: In everything.

[05:05]Host: In weddings your custom... is different from our custom too.

[05:09]Host: What is the difference?

[05:10]Lebanese Woman: What is the difference? You do a trousseau (show), you show it to all the people. Our custom isn't like that.

[05:15]Host: You don't have a trousseau?

[05:17]Lebanese Woman: Meaning they make a trousseau for the bride...

[05:20]Lebanese Woman: And your custom is that you bring the ring to the groom.

[05:23]Lebanese Woman: We don't bring it. The groom brings (it) to the bride and that's it.

[05:27]Host: And regarding cooking?

[05:28]Lebanese Woman: Regarding cooking also... they make food...

[05:32]Host: Come on, for example...

[05:33]Host: We talked about soup, we talked...

[05:34]Lebanese Woman: You make soup, you make kofta, everything, shishbarak... Shakriye.

[05:39]Lebanese Woman: And rice soup, and freekeh soup, all... the same custom.

[05:42]Host: What do you call "germe" (soup/stew)? What do you call it?

[05:44]Lebanese Woman: How? Bulgur with vermicelli. Bulgur... meaning freekeh... also bulgur I mean.

[05:49]Host: Meaning there isn't a difference between... much between here and there?

[05:52]Lebanese Woman: There is, there is, depending on the speech (dialect) too.

[05:55]Host: We aren't talking about the dialect.

[05:56]Lebanese Woman: Yes.

[05:56]Host: We are talking about the cooking.

[05:57]Lebanese Woman: About cooking it's also the same, I'm telling you.

[05:59]Lebanese Woman: But that there are...

[06:00]Lebanese Woman: There are (things) you cook, I told you... Borani.

[06:04]Lebanese Woman: We don't make Borani. That, I learned at your place.

[06:08]Lebanese Woman: There is another dish but...

[06:10]Host: Danik?

[06:11]Lebanese Woman: Yes, that "Danik", we also don't know it.

[06:14]Host: This "Done" is Afrini work?

[06:15]Lebanese Woman: Sarma, dolma, all this we make. This is the work of the people of... Afrin I mean.

[06:21]Host: How did you find it here, Afrin?

[06:22]Lebanese Woman: The... what is its name...

[06:23]Lebanese Woman: Honestly, good. Beautiful.

[06:26]Lebanese Woman: I liked it, may God protect you.

[06:28]Lebanese Woman: And may God give you health.

[06:29]Lebanese Woman: And I loved you all a lot, truly.

[06:31]Host: Thank you.

[06:32]Lebanese Woman: May God strengthen you, and protect you, God willing.

[06:36]Host: Yes.

[06:37]Host: We wanted to ask the mother a little about the customs and traditions of Afrin and Lebanon.

[06:42]Host: Truly, although she discussed it, there isn't much difference.

[06:46]Host: But the names of the foods, she said, she says "this food doesn't exist at our place, Danik."

[06:51]Host: This one... what... is there another food?

[06:53]Lebanese Woman: The Borani... Borani.

[06:55]Host: She says these two foods don't exist at our place, that Danik.

[06:58]Host: Because this is an Afrini food, a specialty of Afrin.

[07:01]Host: And she says that doesn't exist in Lebanon.

[07:03]Host: Meaning there isn't much difference, she says, discussing it.

[07:06]Host: Between Afrin and Lebanon here.

[07:08]Host: Mother, let's return to you again.

[07:10]Host: Now your food is on the fire.

[07:12]Older Woman: Mm.

[07:13]Host: Now which food is good? Is it good on fire, is it good on gas?

[07:16]Older Woman: No, on fire is good.

[07:18]Host: Meaning its taste... is there a difference?

[07:20]Older Woman: Yes... its taste... the pot... when it boils, if it draws its fire slowly, boils slowly... yes, food on fire is good.

[07:26]Host: Well now, things are on gas... they make it quickly (rushed), on gas.

[07:30]Host: May your home be prosperous, may God not give you lack.

[07:33]Host: And may you be prosperous too. And good health/times to you. May the outcome be great success.

[07:37]Host: And we are very happy with your life/living.

[07:39]Host: Be healthy. Be healthy.

[06:58]Host: Ji ber ku ev jî xwarinek Efrînî, taybetmendiya Efrînê ye.

[07:01]Host: Û dibêje ew li Lubnanê tûne ye.

[07:03]Host: Yanî pir ferq cuda bûn tûne ye, dibêje behsê dike.

[07:06]Host: Ji navbera Efrînê û Lubnanê va.

[07:08]Host: Dayê em dîsa vegerin cem te.

[07:10]Host: Niha xwarina we li ser agir e.

[07:12]Older Woman: Mm.

[07:13]Host: Niha kîjan xwarin xweş e? Li ser agir xweş e, li ser gazê xweş e?

[07:16]Older Woman: Na, ser agir xweş e.

[07:18]Host: Yanî tama wê... cudabûn heye?

[07:20]Older Woman: Ê... tama wê... tikanê... kel ket, agirê xwe mîna bikşîne, yavaş bikele... erê, xwarina ser agir xweş e.

[07:26]Host: Ê da nokû jî tişta ser gaza... xureat nokin, ser gaza.

[07:30]Host: Mala wa ava be, Xwedê kêmasiya wa nede.

[07:33]Host: O te jî ava be. Û saeta we xweş. Aqûbet ser keftina mezin be.

[07:37]Host: Û em pir xweş kefin jiyana we ra.

[07:39]Host: Sax bin. Sax bin.
