Tom Thumb(մատնաչափիկը)

Part One

   This story is very old. It is not true, but many children like it. A husband and a wife had no children and they were very sad. There were many nice flowers in their garden, and one day they found a little boy in one flower. He was as small as a man’s thumb. They called him Tom Thumb.

Tom’s mother was very happy. She made nice clothes for her boy. He had a green coat and yellow trousers. On his head he had a yellow hat. His mother made little boots for him. Tom liked his clothes. But he wanted a sword and a shield. He wanted to be a soldier. Mother gave him a needle for a sword and a button for a shield.
One day he went for a walk. He met two men. He did not know them.

This is a story that Charlie Chapline liked to tell about himself.
This happened when he was already a world famous actor. A theatre announced a competition to see who could act like Charlie Chaplin. People who took part in the competition had to dress like Charlie Chapline, walk like Chaplin and act out one of the roles in a Chaplin film.
When Charlie Chaplin heard about the competition, he decided, as a joke, to take part in the competition himself. Of course, he didn’t tell about it to anyone.
Charlie was so much surprised when he heard that he wasn’t the winner. However, he decided that it was quite funny.

Once upon a time (ժուկով-ժամանակով) there lived a king. This king announced (հայտարարեց) throughout the land:

“I will give half my kingdom (թագավորությանս կեսը) to the man who can tell a lie that I can agree that is a lie.”

A shepherd (հովիվ) came and said, “My father has got a pipe (խողովակ). The pipe is very long and he can stir (խառնել) the stars with it».

“That’s possible,” answered the King. “My grandfather had a pipe. He used to (սովորություն ուներ) put one end of it in his mouth and stretch (ձգել) the other up to the sun to light it.”

The man went out scratching (քորելով) his head.

A tailor came and said, “I am sorry, O King, to have come so late. Wind (քամի), storm (փոթորիկ) and lightning (կայծակ) did not let me come early”. I was patching up the crack (ճեղք) of the sky.

“Oh, “I believe it is true” said the King, “but you haven’t patched it very well, for it rained a little again this morning.

This man also went away empty-handed (դատարկաձեռն).

A villager came in with a bag on his shoulder. “What do you want, my good man?” asked the King. “You owe (պարտք լինել) me a bag of gold. I have come for it.” “A bag of gold!” exclaimed (բացականչեց)the King astonished (զարմացած). “That s a lie (սուտ). I do not owe you anything.”

“All right. It is a lie. Then give me half your kingdom.”

“No, no. You’re quite right (Դուք միանգամայն ճիշտ եք). It’s not a lie,” the king tried to correct (ուղղել) himself.

“So I am telling the truth. Then give me the bag of gold.”

“We Are Our Mountains” (Armenian: Մենք ենք, մեր լեռները, Menk’ enk’ mer lernerə) is a large monument north of Stepanakert(Xənkəndi), the capital city of de facto independent and unrecognized Artsakh, but de jure part of Azerbaijan. The sculpture, completed in 1967 by Sargis Baghdasaryan, is widely regarded as a symbol of the Armenian heritage of the region. The monument is made from volcanic tufa and depicts an oldman and woman hewn from rock, representing the mountain people of Karabakh. It is also known as “tatik-papik” (տատիկ-պապիկ) in Armenian, which translates as “Grandmother and Grandfather“. The sculpture is prominent in Artsakh’s coat of arms.^[1]

The Shoushi fortress is one of the main attractions of the city. The inner walls of the castle, built in the XVIII century by meliks of Varand, are almost completely preserved.
