_ Except for it, when my grandmother was, the loom that had been before, I even wove on it.

_ ečənka läydi, mišgwi bebia er läs, lapḳwār er läs ečkad, ečeži məǯšāli.

She wove trousers oh this loop, she wove such towels of hemp, of hemp,

ale lapḳwārži šarwaralyāksi aǯšə̄da, ṗirsaxocärs aǯšə̄da kanxenka, kanxenka eǯḳälibs,

that there is not any clth like it now.

ere atxe dēs äri eǯḳä maṭeria.

Hemp really had it, now nobody keeps it, {because} they smove, but I have in the yard,

kans eǯi der xāda, atxe dǟr agwāwi, itrex lok, mare mi ču muġwa yezwisa,

because when they come to me, they cannot... that... fine me.

eǯġad, ere mišgwāt'er änqdēnix šemoc̣mebate, dešaymoš... məde..., maǯarimex.

It is not good to smoke, to smoke, who smokes by force, well, let it become live coals for him.

letrad, lettūnid mām xaq̇a ales, erwäy attutnis ʒalawš, dera, ġərčdow aččə̄da.

I need hemp seed for the treatment, and I need husk to cure my asthma.

mi ḳaḳäl mac̣əx samḳurnalod i asṭmāšd čwenč mac̣əx samḳurnalod

And we made yoke ropes of it too, we also made ropes of it.

i txəṗǟrsi ečxǟnka xwäsq̇ə̄dad, taḳwǟrsi ečxǟnka xwäsq̇ə̄dad,

Now people hawe no means there to sow.

They will fine you there.

ču lok ǯaǯarimex.

Why you fine me, I really need it.

All are not good to smoke, that one is different.

čīs mām xaq̇a lettunid, eǯi mērbe rig li,

This is different.

We used to peel it, it was male and female,

ečxēnka ču xwaṭmə̄rad eǯis, dedal-mamal las,

female one has not any seed, has not any seed, no...

dedals ḳaḳäl desa xār, mām xār ḳaḳäl, mām...

We piked up before, male one has seeds, it got seeds.

dōsd xwiḳēddad ži, mamals ču xār ḳaḳäl, marcwals iqde.

We piked up female one early, and we used to spread it in the rain, then we removed it,

ale dedals ži xwiḳēddad dōsg i učxaysa ka xopxžad, ečānġo ču xwas... ču xwacīrad eǯis

and we removed this then from the outside, it was such a thing, it was burning, it looked like plaits from a distance.

i ales xoḳēddad ser kāmenka, eǯḳäli mər läs eǯi, eš warwalda, lesdgwarāls xaǯōn ǯōdyad.

This, my mother used to get up and... she did it... this, she clubbed it too herd,

eǯis, qednōl mišgwi bebia i čwa...... čwamdēnda... eǯis, čwabgunda gun.

until it got white, then she used to spin on the spindle, and sho wove cloth,

eǯi woddo čwittenōl, ečānġo ž'altəda čeriži i aǯšə̄da ečxēnka maṭerias,

she wove clothes to children, over-and under clothes,

lerekws xoǯšə̄da bopšärs, žibaw i čubawi lekwems,

like the shirt aud shorts, that we have now.

atx'ēr mäyḳa äri i šorṭiḳäl ärix, eǯḳalibars.

Towels I had towels of it, then I gave them to my grandchild,

ṗirsaxocil, eča ṗirsaxocil ču muġwān mi, ečānġo mišgwa šwilišwils loxo ka,

woven by my grandmother, and a handkerchief of that, made of hemp.

mišgwi bebiā naǯiš i ṗilaṭoḳel, ay, ečxenka, kanxenka nasq̇aw,

It was as cotton wool, kven softer.

_ What else did they weave?
