Алахәыла ахцәажәара:212.46.235.187

It's great that you are interested in this wikipedia!

I guess (actually, I hope) that's because you're from Аҧсны and you want to see an encyclopedia in Аҧсуа бызшәа. There are already successful wikipedias in many languages, including Russian, Turkish, and even Georgian. I hope Аҧсуа wikipedia grows larger than those other wikipedias!

If you want to edit or write some articles it's very easy. You can write as much or as little as you want. This wikipedia needs good articles on Аҧсны, Аҟәа, Владислав Арӡынба, and many other topics about Аҧсны.

I wish I could write these articles, but I can't. I can't speak Аҧсуа yet, but I know a little Ubykh. If you write some articles, I will try to help you. If you have any questions, please write them here.

Welcome to Wikipedia! --Chamdarae 14:36, 13 September 2005 (UTC)

You know ҭәахы бза (ubykh language)?! Waaaw!!!!! Who are you and where are you from?

Фасаапшь! I know a little ҭәахы бза, but I'm not sure about writing it in Cyrillic - I use IPA (but it doesn't work here). I've been learning for about 2 months. Anyway, I'm from New Zealand, and I'm interested in Northwest Caucasian languages. Ӌашьаун уылатых! --Chamdarae 18:22, 17 September 2005 (UTC)

I'm also interested in Northwest Caucasian languages. I have records of Ubykh by Tevfic Esenc. It sounds just like my languag (I mean phonetically our languages are very close to each other). I even understood a couple of words. What about your pronuciation? Are you a linguist? P.S. I added some information to the section "Гагра". I used special marks for bzyp phonemes. I also use й (j) which is not included in literary alphabet.

My major was linguistics. I'm hoping to do my MA at SOAS in London (maybe you've heard of Prof. George Hewitt there). Ubykh pronunciation is difficult, but I like that :-) I have one mp3 file of Tevfik Esenç, but I can't practice speaking with anyone, yet.

Anyway, thanks for adding information about "Гагра". --Chamdarae 09:03, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

Pictures/Изображения

Hewitt’s wife is Abkhazian. I tried inserting an image in section «Гәдоуҭа» but I did not succeed. Could you explain how to do it. P.S. Don’t you speak Russian?

Чтобы вставить картинку, надо сначала её закачать (ссылка слева "Upload file"), а потом вставить в текст статьи код [[Image:тут_имя_файла|thumb|Тут подпись к изображению]]. Возможны разные дополнительные варианты (например, можно задать размер картинки, добавив после слова thumb: [[Image:тут_имя_файла|thumb|300px|Тут подпись к изображению]]. Обрати внимание, что картинки, которые уже хранятся в http://commons.wikipedia.org можно вставлять точно так же (и не закачивать именно в абхазскую Википедию). Вот, к примеру, фотография пакистанского премьер-министра уже лежит на commons по адресу http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Musharraf.jpg — я просто пишу ; и вот она картинка — смотри справа. Желаю удачи в расширении абхазской Википедии! - Amikeco 13:03, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

Яа немного понимаю и говорю по-русский. I can't speak very well. I see this wiki is starting to grow! I hope there are some pictures of Гәдоуҭа soon. --Chamdarae 12:42, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
