Bedeutung
A tree of great height
Kultureller Hintergrund
The 'Baiterek' is a monument in Astana that represents the 'Tree of Life'. It is the most famous 'biik agash' in the country. Trees were often used as burial sites or sacred spots (Ova) in ancient times if they were the only tall objects for miles. In Kazakh poetry, a 'biik agash' often symbolizes a father or a strong leader who protects his family. Almaty is known for its 'biik agashtar', specifically the Tien Shan firs, which are a source of national pride.
Adjective Order
Always put 'биік' before 'ағаш'. Kazakh is strictly head-final in this regard.
