beliefs”.
At
first I want to show you some things on the screen, read the paragraph.
Reading.
Kazakhs are always
careful with salt. Food would be tasteless without salt.
Kazakh’s believe “the essence of food is in its salt”. Lives of those who have
been careless with salt will become salty and bitter until the salt spilt by them
dries out.
The
cauldron\kazan can not be left facing the entrance
door. It is bad luck if a cauldron slips and falls. It means your destiny is
escaping, your very well-being is lost, food becomes scanty.
One should take care when putting a kettle on the fire so as not to let the
boiling water escape on to the fire. Because the water salts will be burnt in
the fire. And burnt salt is a bad omen for
daughters of the household. Salt is the decoration of food as a daughter is the
decoration of the household. Don’t disturb salt and your daughter will not be
disturbed.
The horse manes and
tails are not trimmed, to make sure that horse’s owner enjoy good health. When
a horse owner dies, people will trim the mane and the tail of his horse to make
it look mournful.
If a dog follows a
horseman leaving his village, people would not try to force it back. The
dog is devoted to its owner, and if it wants to with him it means he will have
a happy trip.
A pregnant woman can not
have a haircut because it may hurt her motherhood, and the happiness of the
child she is having.
If you have a visitor
during your breakfast, he or she must have some of your food. If you don’t have
breakfast, the community will refuse you.
3. Open your
notebooks and write down today’s day and date, and class work. The theme is
“Superstitions”. Sayings:
v One cannot ignore the morning meal.
v If you don’t have breakfast, the
community will refuse you.
v One can be senior in age but nobody
