eşikge çığarğa

/eʃikɡe tʃɯʁarʁa/

Literal translation

to go out the door

Of a young woman: to marry and start a household of her own.

Bıla jüz qız boladıla. Anaları bla men sawluqdan, eşikge çıqsala dep, jüz jaşı bolğan adam tapsaq, juwuqluq jürütürge ol tınç bolur edi dep, aŋa birden berirge dep, izlep, bıltır ketib, bıyıl kelgenme.These are a hundred girls. Hoping they would marry while their mother and I are still in good health, and thinking that if we found a man with a hundred sons it would be easy to keep kinship with him and we could give them all to him at once, I set out last year to search, and I have come back this year.
