i(Ahmet)'s wife - Karadayili and close kin. I tried to ask her about her situation. No kin, no co-villagers. Does not visit Karadayi. {gl: next to Elba}.
Her people alive, - a son and a gelin with them. {gl: I remember arriving and finding her alone, embarassed}
What would she do if she were ill?
"Anne" - i.e. her husband's mother {i(6587 Ayse Yilmaz)} her only resource.
Neighbours - she misunderstood and explained that children's quarrels never lead to further trouble; I repeated the question and got no clear response - yes
she gets on well with neighbours, but when the door is shut-..{gl: i.e. alone, not nice} Not much intimacy. Dgn - yes they all join in dgn in the factory
garden.
Impression - a pretty isolated and lonely life. She never shops, never goes anywhere. Sometimes {husband} comes home, sometimes he doesn't.
{husband} on the same theme. All the women in the block were very friendly. But his wife was a villager and he was ashamed of her - he would not take her
visiting his muhendis {engineer} friends.
So he could not take her out.
Children do shopping - father has an account at the kasab, {butcher bakkal {grocer}, etc. and pays when he gets his monthly salary.
k<. woman's isolation, factory block wife, husband's shame>
