          что луну пожирали чудовища <oRef>mæjxortæ</oRef>. По одному дигорскому сказанию, месяц —
          это юноша, которого две недели пожирает сестра-ведьма, а две недели восстанавливает
          любящая жена (<bibl><ref type="bibl" target="#ref_MSt."/>
            <biblScope>15—19</biblScope></bibl>). Это сказание призвано объяснить не затмение, а
          фазы луны.</note>
        <note xml:lang="en" type="comment">; according to folk belief, the lunar eclipse was
          explained by the moon being eaten by monsters called <oRef>mæjxortæ</oRef>. According to
          one Digor legend, the moon is a young man who is eaten by his witch sister for two weeks,
          and then restored by his loving wife for two weeks (<bibl><ref type="bibl" target="#ref_MSt."/>
            <biblScope>15—19</biblScope></bibl>). This legend is meant to explain not the eclipse,
