Description:Translation (Rita) Once upon a time, there was a man who always said lies. So, people called him as 'a big liar'. Then, he was a friend with a tiger. One day, he said the tiger, "Let's go hunting tomorrow!" The tiger said okay. They got a boar in the forest. So, he searched a long trunk of tree and used it to carry that boar. He cleared all the thorns from his side. But he didn't clear any thorns for the tiger. Then, he said to the tiger, "My friend, don't say 'ahkala'. If you say it, the meat will have bitter taste. And don't say 'ahkali' too. If you say it, the meat will have sour taste. Okay?" They carried the boar and went back home. On the way, the tiger pricked its shoulder on the thorns and said 'ahkala'. The man said, "Why did you shout 'ahkala'? I told you not to. The meat will definitely be bitter." The tiger apologized, "I'm sorry. I forgot." Then, they carried the boar again. The thorns pricked the tiger's shoulders again. This time, it shouted 'ahkali' because it felt really hurt. The man said to the tiger, "I told you not to say 'ahkali' from the start! Our meat will be sour." It said, "I'm so sorry. I forgot." Then, they continued their way back home. After a few hours, they got home. They cleaned the intestines and the meat to cook. The liar asked the tiger, "You go and carry some water to cook the meat." The vessel could not be full no matter how many times it drew water. Then, a long wooden plug went into the vessel. He thought, "I couldn't get any water no matter how many times I tried because there is a hole in the vessel." Finally, he got the water. It took the tiger the whole day to carry the water. At that tim, the man already ate all good part of meat. He left only the fat and undelicious part for the tiger. And he cooked it with a kind of yam called 'Lagrang' which had bitter taste. He put the acride fruit called Garcinia in the dish too. Then, the tiger came back by carrying some water. The man said to the tiger, "My friend, you must be really tired. Try the meat." It took the big one and ate it. It was so bitter. Actually, it was not the meat, it was only a piece of 'Lagrang' (which had a bitter taste). The tiger said, "The meat is really bitter." The man told it, "I told you not to say 'ahkala', but you said it on the way. That's why the meat is bitter." Then, it picked another piece of meat and ate it. This time, the meat was sour. It said, "The meat is too sour, my friend." He said, "I already told you not to say 'ahkali'. The meat is sour because you said 'ahkali' on the way." Actually, it ate a piece of Garcinia fruit. That night, they didn't say anything about the meat and just tried to sleep. At that time, the man lied to the tiger again. He said, "My friend, the sky is going to fall." The tiger was shocked and asked him, "What shall we do then?" He said, "Let's run away!" Then, they ran away for some time. The tiger said, "I'm exhausted. What shall we do now?" He answered, "Let's hide under the hay heap!" The tiger was scared and went inside the hay. And it was hiding there. But, the man didn't hide and just stayed outside. When the tiger was inside the hay heap, he burnt the hay. The tiger asked, "My friend, my whole body is burnt. What should I do?" He said, "Then, take a shower in a stream." So, the tiger went inside the water. Then, its skins were turned up, and it sufferd a severe pain. The tiger didn't have much hair too. It got hair on some parts of his body, but not on some parts. Then, it had got stripes. This is the end of the story. The tiger has got stripes till today. It didn't have any stripes in the past. It had got stripes because of the liar.
