意思
Putting on footwear.
文化背景
Shoes must be removed before entering the church building. You will see hundreds of shoes left at the entrance. 'ጫማ ማድረግ' happens only once you have fully exited the holy precinct. The 'Listro' (shoe shiner) is a staple of city life. It is common to sit on a small wooden stool and have someone else clean your shoes while you 'wear' them. When visiting a home, look at the host's feet or the doorway. If they are barefoot or there are shoes at the door, you should remove yours. You 'do' them again only when the host sees you to the door. In many rural areas, walking barefoot is common for children and farmers. 'ጫማ ማድረግ' is often associated with going to school, market, or town.
Watch the host
Always check if others are wearing shoes inside before you 'do' yours.
The 'Madrag' Rule
If it's an accessory (watch, hat, glasses, shoes), use 'madrag'. If it's a garment, use 'melbes'.
