What are the common sense of Tajik civilization etiquette?

Tajiks attach importance to etiquette and are hospitable. For visiting guests or passers-by who ask for accommodation, whether they know each other or not, they are warmly welcomed and sincerely entertained. Usually, you need to choose a fat lamb to present to the guests. If the guests are satisfied, they will be taken out for slaughter and cooking. When dining, the host first respects the guest with a bowl of mutton soup, and then serves a large plate of "hand-roasted mutton". If the guest takes a piece from the plate to the busy hostess first, the host will be happier. Then, the host must first give the sheep's head to the most distinguished guest at the dinner party. When a guest cuts off a piece of meat, he will give the guest the liver of sheep covered with sheep tail oil as a sign of respect. Then everyone began to dip in salt water and eat meat.

In order to increase the joyful atmosphere at the dinner party, young people have to compete to break sheep bones, that is, hold greasy leg bones with both hands and take turns to break them hard. This is a contest between technology and strength, and the king of destruction is warmly praised by everyone. Sleeping in a warm room at night under the warm greeting of the host has a strange smell.

Tajikistan has simple folk customs and noble social morality. Anyone who has been to Tashkurgan will be amazed at the roads here, the doors are not closed at night, ethnic harmony and social stability. In today's society, it is really amazing!

Tashkurgan, the hub of the Silk Road and the place where Tajiks lived on the prosperous ancient Silk Road, fell into a long desolate and silent era after the development of maritime traffic between the east and the west. However, since 1950s, with the vigorous development of socialist modernization and the acceleration of opening up, Xixiang Plateau, which has been closed for a long time, has become the frontier of opening up in northwest China.

Under the guidance of the construction policy of "Reviving the Silk Road", a brand-new Karakorum international highway will cross the county seat and directly reach the Hongqilafu Pass on the China-Pakistan border. Nowadays, every day at the Hongqilafu port in the county, not only a large number of convoys full of goods come and go from east to west, but also shuttle by. But also welcome a large number of tourists to China and other countries in the world. When groups of foreign friends came to China for economic and cultural exchanges along the road taken by Tang Xuanzang in China, they were first warmly received by the Tajik people, and they saw colorful Tajik culture, simple folk customs and impressive civilization and prosperity.

Birthday Ceremony In Tajik families, the birth of a baby is a happy event. Since the birth of the child, parents have placed deep expectations on it. Every time a boy is born, the father shoots three shots at the skylight to report the good news, or shouts three times, hoping that the child will be brave and promising when he grows up. When a girl is born, she won't shoot. She put a broom under her head to show that she should be frugal when she grows up. When friends and relatives hear the news, they all rush to congratulate and sprinkle some flour on the baby to show good luck.

Circumcision and haircut ceremony Boys will have a circumcision ceremony when they are 6-7 years old. Please have religious people circumcised. On this day, parents will feast their relatives and friends to celebrate. In shache and other counties, Tajiks circumcise their foreskin, but only invite Hailipai or Mullah to do it, instead of holding a banquet.

Girls usually hold a haircut ceremony when they are 65,438+0-2 years old. After the haircut, girls start to comb their hair. Relatives and friends came to congratulate with children's gifts.

Wedding Wedding is the last destination of a series of processes such as young men and women's choice, love, proposal and engagement. From then on, two people formed a family, had children and lived together. Therefore, the wedding is not a simple matter, and its conclusion process is more complicated.

Although arranged marriage prevailed in love in the past, it often happened that young men and women gradually became fond of each other through their contacts in production and life. There are several ways to express love:

When a young man pursues a girl, most girls just smile implicitly without giving a clear answer. Later, if the girl quietly gave her carefully embroidered purse to the young man and put a burnt matchstick in it, it would mean: you are my lover, and love for fire has burned my heart. When the young man receives the purse, he will immediately put an almond in a small yellow cloth bag sewn with red thread and give it to the girl, which means: I gave you my whole heart, maybe he just put a few stones and a few grains of salt on it and gave it to the girl, which means: My heart that loves you is as hard as a stone and will not change; You treat me like salt, I can't live without you! A young man can also send a burnt match to a girl. Its metaphors are all valid, and both sides will understand at a glance.
