Travay #12 – Fè Makèt

Task #12 – Shopping (Haitian Creole)

 

Achats nan eta Zini kapab dramatikman diferan pou anpil fèk vini.

Volontè yo ka pran latèt nan ede nouvo vini yo aprann kijan pou yo achte nan nouvo kominote yo. Gade rezime peyi yo tache pou jwenn yon deskripsyon tou kout sou peyi orijin, lang, koutim, ak manje/kwizin. Objektif Travay 1 – Avans rive ak Travay 2 Anjeneral ajans reyentegrasyon okipe lojman. Yo pral kolekte bagay ki nesesè nan kay la, mèb, ak founiti netwayaj. Yo menm tou yo anjeneral fè makèt atik manje okòmansman stock frijidè a. Yon repa tipik natif natal oswa engredyan pou manje natif natal yo toujou yon gwo jès premye lannwit.

Shopping in the United States can be dramatically different for many newcomers.

Volunteers can take the lead in helping newcomers learn how to shop in their new communities.  See attached country summaries for a brief description of the country of origin, language, customs, and food/cuisine.  Task 1 – prearrival and Task 2 Housing is usually handled by resettlement agencies.  They will collect needed household items, furniture, and cleaning supplies. They also usually do food item shopping to initially stock the refrigerator.  A typical native meal or ingredients for native meals are always a great first night gesture.

 

Volontè yo ka bay transpòtasyon nan mache lokal yo ki gen kalite engredyan fèk vini yo itilize yo. Volontè yo ka konekte ak travayè ka reyentegrasyon yo, lòt refijye ki soti nan menm zòn nan, epi tou senpleman fè rechèch sou entènèt pou boutik espesyalite manje oswa mache sa yo ki gen engredyan ki ka itilize. Volontè yo ka bay enfòmasyon tou sou fason pou fè acha (Gade Travay #13 pou alfabetizasyon finansye – kont labank, kat kredi/debi elatriye…).

Volunteers can provide transportation to local markets that have the kind of ingredients newcomers are used to.  Volunteers can connect with resettlement caseworkers, other refugees from the same area, and simply do internet searches for specialty food shops or those markets that have usable ingredients. Volunteers can also provide information on how make purchases (See Task#13 for financial literacy – bank accounts, credit/debit cards etc…).

 

Afganistan: Manje nan Afganistan se yon melanj ant Mwayen Oryan, Azyatik, ak Endyen. Li gen ladann yon anpil nan fwi ak nwa, osi byen ke diri ak ti mouton. Yogout yo itilize tou kòm yon topping, tankou jan yo itilize fwomaj Ozetazini

Repiblik Demokratik Kongo. Yon repa tipik ka gen ladan fèy manyòk, pwa, ak yon lanmidon. Lanmidon sa a ka fèt ak farin mayi oswa manyòk, oswa yon melanj de la, epi yo refere yo kòm ugali oswa fufu, tou depann de kote nan DRC a. Si yon fanmi gen resous yo, yo ka sèvi vyann tou tankou ti mouton oswa vyann bèf. Anpil Kongo ki pa mizilman bwè alkòl. Byè (yon melanje tradisyonèl ki fèt ak bannann oswa sorgo) gen yon valè sosyal enpòtan pou Kongolè yo, ki kwè ke li ini moun ak ankouraje amitye. Pa gen okenn seremoni enpòtan ki fini san yo pa bwè byè oswa voye l sou tè a pou onore zansèt yo.

El Salvador: Pou yon fanmi salvadoryen, anseye yo ki kote yo ka achte engredyan pou pupusas. Engredyan: Fè soti nan farin masa, baz la pou tortillas, tamales ak lòt diskontinu pou kwit manje Laten, pupusas se gato mayi epè plen ak yon varyete engredyan tankou vyann kochon, poul, fwomaj oswa pwa. Pou sèten, yo toujou sèvi ak curtido, yon chou chou mèveye kroustiyan ak pikan, ak yon senp salsa wouj.

Myanma. Tipikman, moun ki soti nan Myanma manje diri bouyi akonpaye pa Curry ak kondiman. Manje byen bonè nan maten an ka konpoze de diri fri rès oswa vapè diri kolan, manje ak wowoli ak sèl tise byen mouye, pwa bouyi, epi pafwa griye pwason sèk. Nan zòn iben yo, manje maten yo ta ka pen ak konfiti oswa Endyen naan (flatbread) ak pwa bouyi. Manje midi a se anjeneral diri ak kèk kalite Curry, ki pou moun ki gen plis byen-a-fè ka yon plat vyann akonpaye pa legim brase-fri ak yon soup. Plis asyèt, tankou divès kalite pate pwason fèrmante (manje ak legim bouyi) ak lòt asyèt vyann oswa legim, yo ka sèvi, tou depann de revni fanmi an.

Afghanistan: The food in Afghanistan is a mix between Middle Eastern, Asian, and Indian. It includes a lot of fruit and nuts, as well as rice and lamb. Yogurt is also used as a topping, like how cheese is used in the United States

Democratic Republic of Congo. A typical meal might include cassava leaves, beans, and a starch. This starch can be made of maize or cassava flour, or a mix of the two, and is referred to as ugali or fufu, depending on the location in the DRC. If a family has the resources, they may also serve meat like lamb or beef. Many Congolese who are not Muslim drink alcohol. Beer (a traditional brew made from banana or sorghum) has important social value for the Congolese, who believe that it unites people and fosters friendship. No important ceremony is ended without drinking beer or sprinkling it on the ground to honor ancestors.

El Salvador:  For a Salvadorian family, teach them where they can buy ingredients for pupusas.  Ingredients: Made from masa dough, the base for tortillas, tamales and other Latin cooking staples, pupusas are thick corn cakes filled with a variety of ingredients such as pork, chicken, cheese or beans. For certain, they are always served with curtido, a wonderfully crunchy and tangy cabbage slaw, and a simple red salsa.

Myanmar. Typically, people from Myanmar eat boiled rice accompanied by curry and condiments. The early morning meal may consist of fried leftover rice or steamed sticky rice, eaten with sesame and finely ground salt, boiled beans, and sometimes grilled dried fish. In the urban areas, breakfast might be bread and jam or Indian naan (flatbread) with boiled beans. The midday meal is usually rice and some kind of curry, which for the more well-to-do may be a meat dish accompanied by stir-fried vegetables and a soup. More side dishes, such as various fermented fish paste dips (eaten with boiled vegetables) and other meat or vegetable dishes, may be served, depending on the family’s income.
