Ҳамакнун аз ҳама пурқувваттарин ҷӯяндаи шабакаи ҷаҳонии Интернет, ки шумораи зиёди корбарон аз он ҳар рӯз истифода мебаранд ба забони форсӣ низ сӯҳбат мекунад.

Google Тарҷумон сомонаҳо ва матнҳоро аз забонҳои гуногун тарҷума мекунад. Аз имрӯз шумо метавонед навиштаҳои бо забони англисӣ дар ин сомона навишташударо ба забони форсӣ мутолиа кунед. Барои дар амал дидани тарҷумони форсии Google ва тарҷума кардани матнҳои ин торнамои ман ба форсӣ ин пайвандро пахш кунед.

Расман дар бораи ин хизмати ройгони тарҷумон, Google дар торнамояш хабаре моҳи июни соли ҷорӣ интишор карда буд.  Тарҷумон хатогиҳо дорад, аммо дар торнамо гуфта мешавад, ки кормандони Google саъю кӯшиш карда истодаанд, то сифати тарҷума беҳтар шавад. Инчунин, корбарони Интернет фикру мулоҳизаҳо ва пешниҳоди худро барои беҳтар кардани тарҷумаи матнҳо ба Google дар як вақт ирсол намоянд. Дар ҳол истифодабарандагони ин тарҷумон метавонанд бо осонӣ аз беш аз 40 забонҳои дунё ба форсӣ матнҳоро тарҷума кунанд.  Аз забони форсӣ низ метавонед ба беш аз 40 забонҳои гуногун матнҳо ва сомонаҳоро тарҷума намоед.

Шояд ба наздики Google забони тоҷики ҳуруфи кирилликро низ ба рӯихати забонҳои пуштибонишуда илова намояд. Худи ҷӯяндаи Google ба забони тоҷикӣ аллакай тарҷума шуда истодааст. Бо пахш кардани ин пайванд ҷӯянди Google-ро бо забони тоҷикӣ дар мурургари худ боз кунед.

In the evening, I was invited to go to Bow Time Cinema in West Hartford to watch newly released movie The Time Traveler’s Wife.  I am very happy joining and not missing this touching movie. The movie is based on a book by Audrey Niffenegger. Main actors are Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams.

This is all about a young man whose name is Henry. The movie starts with a car accident when a small kid looses her mother. This scene was unexpected and scary. Henry travels to the past from future meeting with a little girl with whom he gets married in the future. In some moments I found it very funny and humorous and did not expect it would have sad end. Now after seeing the movie, I wish to read the book based on which this movie was produced. I highly recommend to everyone both to read the book and see this touching movie.

As planned early in the morning I woke up and prepared to go to the Rock Neck State Park. First I was told told just going to the beach in Connecticut. Later when we were on our way, I realized it is pretty long distance from West Hartford. My friend Sari gave me a map to navigate while she was driving. I was really impressed to see the distance.  Just see how long it is to go down from West Hartford to Rock Neck State Park.

The weather in the morning was foggy. I was thinking it might not be a good day to swim without sun. When we came to the beach, we have saw already many people putting umbrellas, reading books and camping in Rock Neck State Park. So we also prepared our place by putting beach chairs and umbrellas. Later the weather became sunny and the beach got populated.  So I went to swim and the water was salty and hot already. I liked this beach but Rehoboth Beach in Delaware was much better

While enjoying the beach, Sari was using her Iphone to communicate with her friends on the Facebook. On the way back home we talked about how she uses technology and what am I hoping to get living and studying in the US. In this country it is a challenge not knowing technology. Everywhere people use technology even when parking a car, when you need to pay for parking there is a digital display! Sari gave me her Iphone to use its GPS and see how drive back to West Hartford. It was really amazing to see how we were moving to West Hartford navigating with Iphone. In West Hartford, Bishop’s Corner we went to have Big Macs at McDonald. Sari showed me some impressive Iphone applications such as Smule’s Ocarina iPhone app.

I will try to blog as frequently as I can. These days so many things to explore here. Soon I will be writing more… I make notes about every day of my life here and will be blogging soon.

Today I had a chance to drive Honda Accord and find driving easy. Of course, I understand that everyone who is willing to drive a car should study additionally driving rules, road maps, and all other tricks. Even when completing driving course does not mean you are a good driver, good driver should should have several years of experience.  Having a chance to drive a car, I realized that it might be easy to drive but find driving rules as a challenge. In this country people are very serious about driving. Everyone obeys the law of seat belts.

Sari, my host mom offered me to drive and instructed me how to turn, push and gas etc. While I drove the care, Sari took my pictures on how I learned parking properly. According to her I could learn quickly to drive, but still need to learn many things. I had unusual and excited feeling when driving… Hopefully soon I will have extra time to study, get my driving license and gain some experience of driving while being in the country of cars and big trucks…

Имрӯз ба шаҳри Ҳартфорд ҳамроҳи як донишҷӯи тоҷик бо номи Наргис омада расидам. Пеш аз нишастан ба ҳавопаймо ҳар ду барои гузаштан аз гумрук омода шудем. Ҳар ҷомадони мо бояд на зиёд аз 50 фут(тахминан 22 килограм) бошад, вагарна ба ҳар вазни иловаги аз мо метавонанд беш аз 100 доллари амрикоӣ талаб намоянд. Хушбахтона, ҷомадони мо на он қадар вазнин буд ва мо парвоз омода шудем. Тахминан парвози мо аз Вашингтон то Ҳартфорд камтар аз яку ним соат тӯл кашид.

Дар охир ба шаҳри Ҳартфорд расидем ва аз гуфтаи Наргис ӯро як донишҷӯ мунтазир буд. Манро бошад ҳеҷ кас дар Ҳартфорд интизор набуд. Ман танҳо суроғаи меҳмонхонаро медонистаму халос. Мо дар фурудгоҳи шаҳри Ҳартфорд харитаи шаҳро гирифта бо ҷадвали такси ва автобусҳо шинос шудем. Наргис ба донишҷӯе мунтазир буд ва манро хоҳиш кард, ки ҳар ду мунтазири ҳамон донишҷӯ шавем. Баъд аз чан лаҳза он донишҷӯ, агар хато накунам, лаҳистони ба назди мо омад ва ҳолпурси карду Наргисро гирифта рафт. Баъдан ман як таксиро дошта ба меҳмонхонаи Hotel Inn Express омадам.

Шаҳри Ҳартфорд на он қадар шаҳри калон мебошад. Маркази шаҳри Ҳартфордро Downtown Hartford, яъне Маркази Ҳартфорд. Инҷо Биноҳои баланди Бонки Амрико, ширкати мобилии AT&T, ширкатҳои суғуртави қомат афрохтаанд. Шаҳри Ҳартфорд – маркази маъмурии иёлати Коннектикут мебошад ва аз гуфти сокинони ин шаҳр Ҳартфорд дар ҷаҳон ҳамчун пойтахти ширкатҳои суғуртавӣ машҳур аст.

Дар меҳмонхона тез барои бардоштани ҷомадони на он қадар вазнини ман пешхизмати меҳмонхона ёри расонд. Дар меҳмонхона ба ман ду калиди ба корти пардохти хизматҳои мобили монандро доданд, ки онро метавонед ба ҷои калид истифода баред. Дар меҳмонхонаи дастраси ба Шабакаи Интернет бе ноқил ва хеле суръати баланд дорад.

Аз рӯи имкон ман бештар дар бораи Ҳартфорд ва таҳсили худ дар Донишгоҳ хоҳам навишт. Агар саволе оиди таҳсил ва зиндагӣ дар Ҳартфорд ва умуман дар ИМА дошта бошед, ҳатман дар поёни ин навиштаи ман тавзеҳоти худро ирсол намоед.

Имрӯз барои ҳамаи мо иштирочиёни барномаи Эдмунд Маски рӯзи охирин дар Вашингтон аст. Пагоҳ ҳар яки мо ба Донишгоҳи худ парвоз хоҳем кард.

Барномаи шиносоӣ бо кишвари Амрико, таҳсил дар Донишгоҳ ва зистан дар маҳалли худро ба мо меомӯзанд. Тӯли якчанд рӯз дар Вашингтон ман мисли дигарон дар барномаҳои ин конфронси шиносоӣ иштирок карда ҳар рӯз як чизе наверо дар бораи ҳаёту таҳсил дар Амрикоро омӯхтам

Чун дар ин конфронс 140 нафар донишҷӯён аз тамоми ИДМ иштирок мекунанд, имрӯз намояндаҳои кишварҳои ИДМ барои вохӯри бо донишҷӯён даъват шудаанд.

Вашингтон Ҳавзаи Колумбия

Sunday July 26, 2009 – After yesterday’s sunburn at the City of Rehoboth Beach it was hard to get up late in the morning. Today Tajik students are invited to show how to cook Oshi Palov. Together with friends I went to shop (rice, meat, oil, cabbage etc) and by 10:00 we were ready to go to cook and have our Cultural Exchange with American friends.

Margaret, a woman who has kindly invited to cook and enjoy Tajik traditional meal. She came and took us to her house with her Honda car showing the way to her house and telling all about people. On our way to Margaret’s house there was a fair. Our host told that this fair is for farmers to showcase their harvests and have competition. American farmers also bring their cows and goats. It was interesting how they spend their week-ends having various activities. My two Tajik female fellows and one Azerbaijani fellow also divided our tasks on the way to Margaret’s house. I decided to peal carrots

So when we arrived to Margaret’s house, I found the place very beautiful and green, many cottages surrounded by colorful flowers. When I entered I found the cottage full of artworks and souvenirs collected from different parts of the world and many many books.

We started preparing meals first cabbage, big red Bulgarian peppers with beef. I started preparing carrots peeling them and cutting them into pieces. Malika, one of my fellows mentioned about McDonald’s fries. Yes, carrots for Oshi Palau must be peeled and cut like McDonald’s fries.

We had also other two American guests and we played table tennis – I learned how to play table tennis and we had “word” tennis game.

So after preparing Russian golubtsi , we started cooking Tajik Palav. Our traditional meal was very delicious and it reminded me how about my hometown. It is such a pleasure when one may introduce cooking by not only telling but also showing how it is cooked. Our American friends like Oshi Palav

We took lots of pictures and went out to see beautiful flowers around the cottage. I took several photos of flowers and bees. Here I posted one of the photos at Wikimedia Commons.

And lastly we had also Tajik music and showed Tajik dance. We had Shabnami Surayo and Jonibek Murodov’s song playing and demonstrated Tajik dancing
