fakasani
v. 1. tie two mature coconuts together using fibers pulled from their husks
動 1. 2個の熟したココナツを,中果皮から引き出した繊維で結び合わせること
n. 2. a pair of mature coconuts tied together in this way
名 2. そのように結び合わせた一対のココナツ
Two mature coconuts are partially husked, and fibers are pulled from the mesocarp and tied together. The pair is then hung from a house or other structure and left to dry for about one to three years. As they dry, the moisture inside is lost and the solid endosperm turns reddish brown, becoming copra (takataka 'kula). See also: fakahani.
熟したココナツ2個の外皮の一部をえぐり,中果皮の繊維を引き出して互いに結び合わせる.その後,家屋などに吊るして1~3年ほど乾燥させる.長期間乾燥させることで内部の水分が失われ,固形胚乳は赤褐色に変化してコプラ(takataka 'kula)となる.[参] fakahani.
