yataghan translation
Hi everyone,
I am totally new in this forum,but I hope I may learn a lot from you. My name is Daniel and I live in Bulgaria.I am interested in Balkan arms-knives and yataghans. For my short stay here in the forum I understood that Zifir may help me to translate the inscription on my yataghan. Thank you very much in advance! My best rigarts to you all in this forum! Here are the photos. |

welcome here  thanks for your presentation, but if you read the post concerning the translation http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=11201 you will noticed that the picture for the whole weapon is requested, and, according with "zefir" availability, you should have an answer as far as, the mentions are indeed, in Turkish ottoman writing  à + Dom |

Dear Dom,
First of all I would like to thank you for your reply and the attention you paid to me! I think that the inscription was written in Turkish, that is why I directed my question and request for translation to Zifir. But this does not minimize my respect to all other colleagues in the forum and personally to you, you thorough knowledge in Arabian language. Will be very thankful for the translation of the inscription!! Looking forward to receiving your reply!

Gentlemen,
Dandi is new and may not understand the rules quite yet. To help him out, I am attaching a picture of the entire yataghan before it was acquired by its current owner. Regards, Teodor |

I understand the situation myself, some years ago, I got some difficulties when I came here for the fist time ... I didn't forgot it but, a rule has been decided, if we don't apply it ?? ...  why to put a rule, specially not too much restrictive anyway for you, to be patient waiting for "Zifir" assistance, from the two pictures, my translator, gave me at least one translation, the other it's in Turkish language, with some Arabic words, but too few to be intelligible  AGHA MOHAMED SAHEB either OWNER MOHAMED AGHA "AGHA" been a military rank in Ottoman Janissary troops again, Dandi, you are very welcome here à + Dom Last edited by Dom; 19th December 2011 at 04:53 PM. |
