Tai (ithoshi laseThailand lenhlaka) — amagxolo e-Melaleuca axutshwe namafutha e-yang, asongwe ngegobolondo lesithelo se-areca futhi aboshwe ngentambo ngezikhawu, okokukhanyisa

"Amagxolo e-samet axutshwa namafutha e-yang futhi ashiywe ubusuku obubodwa ukuze amafutha amunceke, bese esongwa ngegobolondo elomile lesithelo se-areca noma ngamaqabunga e-pandan (anameva), noma amaqabunga e-toei na asusiwe ameva, adluliswe emlilweni, asikwe ngobukhulu obufunwayo, futhi aboshwe ngentambo ngezikhawu."

Amagxolo e-samet (Melaleuca) amhlophe angcono kunabomvu ngoba ahlubuka kalula. Omisa amagxolo. Amafutha e-yang atholakala ngokubaza umgodi emthini we-yang na (Dipterocarpus alatus) ngembazo bese uwushisa; ekuseni ngakusasa amafutha ayageleza. Xuba amagxolo e-samet namafutha e-yang bese ushiya ubusuku obubodwa ukuze amafutha amunceke.

Songa okokubasa ngegobolondo elomile lesithelo se-areca, ngamaqabunga e-pandan, noma ngamaqabunga e-toei na asusiwe ameva. Dlulisa emlilweni, bese usika ngobukhulu obufunwayo. I-tai ibamba umlilo kalula: yibase kude nophahla nanoma yini esha kalula, futhi uqaphele ilahle elibomvu ekugcineni kwayo.

Yibophe ngentambo ngezikhawu ubude bonke futhi wenze isibambo emkhawulweni ongemuva.

Izithombe nemidwebo ye-tai (ศูนย์มานุษยวิทยาสิรินธร, Isikhungo Se-Anthropology SaseSirindhorn, umbhali จุฑามาศ ลิ้มรัตนพันธ์ (Chuthamat Limrattanaphan), CC BY 4.0).

Basa umkhawulo. Ngemuva kwesikhashana ilahle elibomvu ekugcineni limboza ilangabi; lishaye ngodondolo ukuze i-tai ivuthe futhi. Ama-tai amakhulu asetshenziswa ohambweni ngoba avutha isikhathi eside. I-tai iphinde isetshenziswe njengokokubasa umlilo. I-tai ibamba umlilo kalula: yibase kude nophahla nanoma yini esha kalula, futhi uqaphele ilahle elibomvu ekugcineni kwayo.

Kudala abantu bazenzela ama-tai abo, okokukhanyisa ebusuku, ukufunda, noma ukubamba amaxoxo nezinhlanzi emasimini elayisi. EBan Lamai eKo Samui, imicu kakhokhonathi ixutshwa namafutha e-yang futhi isongwe ngegobolondo lesithelo se-areca. I-tai iphinde isetshenziswe ukubasa izinkuni lapho kushiswa isidumbu, futhi ifakwa neminikelo ye-mrap emkhosini wokuzinikela wenyanga yeshumi eningizimu. Selokhu kwafika ugesi, i-tai icishe ingasabonakali. I-tai ibamba umlilo kalula: yibase kude nophahla nanoma yini esha kalula, futhi uqaphele ilahle elibomvu ekugcineni kwayo.
