Hi everyone,
This is from a Sudanese text. A truck has come into the village for the first time, and all the children are crowding around it to get a look.
I'm finding different meanings for this word based on the context, and not sure how to translate it here.
يلمسون إطاراته ويستمتع الصغار بطبز عينيه الزجاجية الكبيرة دون أن يرمش
Thanks!
