Ok, let’s see what do we have
here, a… umm, I think it’s a duck, it’s a duck made out of
plastic, aha! I guess the kind that makes a noise, like in
Iran they used to call these “jaghjaghe” [because they make
a “jigh” sound] when we were kids. I don’t know if they
still say “jaghjaghe” or not. Whether this is “jaghjaghe” or
“morghābi” (waterfowl, duck) or “ordak” (duck) I don’t know.
There’s his beak (menqār) of him, it is orange color, he has
two eyes, yellow color, the lower part of his body, that
part which goes in the water, it also is yellow. The upper
part of his body, his head, that part which stays above the
water, is white color. It’s made out of plastic as I said.
Manufacture as usual is made in China and makes funny
noises.
Uhh, another thing which is here on the table is a pencil
whose color maybe we can say it’s light brown, mustard
yellow (khardali) or something in this neighborhood. This
pencil perhaps its tip earlier was chewed by someone, they
were hungry (gashne < gerosne) for it I guess. [As for] it’s
end, an eraser that didn’t come with it, that wasn’t its
“original” [eraser] ummm, it’s been put in it …I mean, on
it. The eraser is pink (face, flesh color) and yes, it’s
been used before (earliers).
Umm, among other things that are on the table, is a pen
which ahh, the end (sar) of the pen with red color, I mean
that I guess its ink also its color is red… like …the pen,
by the way is a Bic, umm, when I was in Iran, Bic pens were
available , as I remember by the way, they were transparent
but this one is white, ok, uhh, I guess earlier, it was used
a few times since duhhh…a little on its tip is a little
gummed up with red ink.
Ahh, another thing which is on the table is a pair of
scissors, metal scissors of which the end (tip, point) of
the scissors is broken—one of its ends but I guess it still
cuts (mibore) paper. These scissors have two separate
(distinct) parts of which one is their handle of which the
blades of them are metal. Their metal blades and yeah, are
metal colored but their handle has been painted (rang
karde-and) and is musk-colored, black, uhh, yes, it’s still
possible to cut stuff with these scissors. |
