英语词汇buzkashi的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

buzkashi. The word is not in any English dictionary but had its 15 minutes of fame during the war in Afghanistan. Buzkashi is a furious game dating back to the horsemen of Genghis Khan, in which riders fight in a free-for-all for the carcass of a goat or calf that must be deposited in a circle on the ground by the winner. Before this, the riders must lean to the ground from their horses, avoiding flashing hooves and often holding their own horse’s reins in their teeth while they try to lift the 150- pound carcasses. Their reward is the honor of victory and money contributed by the spectators.
