The akyn sings a song and while singing he must mention all the groom's relatives and the bride must bend and greet by making salem. All the guets give korimdik and throw shashu (sweets).

Besikke Salu- Бесікке салу

Besikke Salu, or "Putting in the Cradle," is a ceremony for blessing a new baby. This entails placing the infant in its cradle and, to ensure blessings, putting a small mirror or brush under the pillow for a baby girl or a whip and knife for a boy. A burning sprig of sage or a flame, as pictured here, is passed over the cradle as a symbol of cleansing, life and protection. A grandmother then pinches the baby's nose to make it cry, which assures a calm, deep sleep afterwards.

THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION

Числительное – это часть речи, обозначающая количество или порядок предметов.

Соответственно, английские числительные делятся на две группы: количественные (cardinal numerals) и порядковые (ordinal numerals).

Количественные числительные обозначают число предметов (отвечают на вопрос «сколько?»): one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, и т.д.

Порядковые числительные обозначают порядок предметов (отвечают на вопрос «который?»): first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, eleventh, Особенности употребления английских числительных

В английском языке при обозначении номеров, страниц, глав, частей книг, аудиторий, домов, трамваев и т. п. обычно употребляются количественные числительные. В этом случае количественное числительное следует за определяемым им существительным, причем существительное употребляется без артикля:

chapter one (глава первая), part two (часть вторая), lesson three (урок третий), page fifteen (страница пятнадцатая). Open your books at page 23 (twenty-three).

Года обозначаются количественными числительными. При чтении обозначений года хронологическая дата делится пополам, причем каждая половина читается как отдельное число:

1917 (nineteen seventeen), 1848 (eighteen forty-eight)

A. S. Pushkin was born in 1799 (seventeen ninety-nine) and died in 1837 (eighteen thirty-seven).

А. С. Пушкин родился в 1799 году и умер в 1837 году.

При обозначении арифметических действий глагол, выражающий результат действия, может стоять как в единственном, так и во множественном числе:

Five and four is (are) nine.

Nine minus five is (are) four.

Three times four is (are) twelve.

В английском языке в простых дробях (common fractions) числитель выражается количественным числительным, а знаменатель – порядковым. Поэтому не забывайте о том, как образуются порядковые числительные. Более того, если числитель является цифрой больше единицы, у знаменателя будет еще и окончание -s на конце. Например:

½ – a half / one half

⅓ –  a third / one third

¼ – a fourth / one fourth / a quarter / one quarter

⅕ –  a fifth / one fifth

⅙ –  a sixth / one sixth

⅔ –  two third s

¾ – three fourth s  / three quarter s

⅘ –  four fifth s

⅚ –  five sixth s

1 ½ — one and a half

2 ¼ — two and a fourth

3 ⅓ – three and a third
