qoltuğun-qoyunun qarmatırğa

/qoltuʁun-qojunun qarmatɯrʁa/

Literal translation

to make one's armpit and bosom raked out

To take away everything someone has earned and owns, leaving them with nothing.

Ay üyügüzge, da, kerti oquna, jaz başı sayın, boyunuğuznu sozub, önküç tiley da, küz artında ua, qoltuğuğuznu-qoyunuğuznu qarmatıb, quru jurtha qalğandan bir erikmegenmisiz?— Curse your house, really now, haven't you grown tired of craning your necks to beg for a loan every spring, and then in late autumn, stripped bare, being left with nothing but the bare homestead?
