engelska-lettiska översättning av tribe

ciltsLielākā daļa uzvarētāju ir vienas galvenās cilts - Kikuyu - locekļi. The victors mainly belong to one major tribe, the Kikuyu. Abās robežas pusēs jau sen dzīvo paštunu ciltis, un pašreizējā haosā ir grūti pateikt, kurš nāk no kuras cilts. The Pashtun tribes have long lived on both sides of the border and it is difficult in the current chaos to find out who comes from where. Ne tāpēc, ka afgāņiem būtu raksturīgs negodīgums, bet gan tāpēc, ka afgāņu cilšu sabiedrība uzskata, ka savas ģimenes un cilts aprūpēšana ir pašsaprotams tikums. This is not because Afghans are endemically dishonest but because Afghan tribal society sees looking after one's own family and tribe as a self-evident virtue.
