The Hot Dog

Прочитайте и письменно переведите текст.

In its home country of Germany, the hot dog is called the frankfurter. It was named after Frankfurt, a German city.

Frankfurters were first sold in the United states in the 1860s. Americans called frankfurters "dachshund sausages". A dachshund is a dog from Germany with a very long body and short legs. "Dachshund sausage" seemed like a good name for the frankfurter.

Dachshund sausages first became popular in New York, especially at baseball games. At games they were sold by men who kept them warm in hot-water tanks. As the man walked up and down the rows of people, they yelled, "Get your dachshund sausages! Get your dachshund sausages!" People got the sausages on buns, a special bread.

One day in 1906 a newspaper cartoonist Tad Dorgan went to a baseball game. When he saw the men with the dachshund sausages, he got an idea for a cartoon. The next day at the newspaper office he drew a bun with a dachshund inside -- not a dachshund sausage, but a dachshund. Dorgan didn't know how to spell "dachshund". Under the cartoon, he wrote "Get your hot dogs!"

The cartoon was a sensation, and so was the new name. If you go to a baseball game today, you can still see sellers walking around with hot-water tanks. As they walk up and down the rows they yell, "Get your hot dogs here! Get your hot dogs!"

Хот-дог.

В своей родной стране Германии, хот-догом называют сосиску. Он был назван в честь Франкфурта, немецкого города.

Сосиски впервые были проданы в США в 1860-х годах. Американцы называли сосиски " такса колбасы ". Такса - собака из Германии с очень длинным телом и короткими ногами. "Такса колбасы" - это хорошее имя для сосиски.

Такса колбасы впервые стали популярны в Нью-Йорке, особенно на игре в бейсбол. На играх они продавались мужчинами, которые хранили их в теплой водогрейной цистерне. Когда человек ходил взад и вперед ряды людей, они кричали: "Начните такса колбасы! Получите вашу такса сосиску!" Люди получали сосиски на булочке, специальный хлеб.

Однажды в 1906 году карикатурист газеты Тэд Дорган пошел на бейсбольный матч. Когда он увидел мужчин с таксой колбасой, он получил идею для мультфильма. На следующий день в редакции он нарисовал булочку с таксой внутри - не таксу колбасу, но такса. Дорган не знал, как пишется "такса". Под мультфильм, он написал "Получите ваш хот-доги!"

Мультфильм стал сенсацией, и так было новое имя. Если вы идете на бейсбольный матч сегодня, вы все еще можете увидеть продавцов с водогрейными цистернами. Когда они идут вверх и вниз по строкам они кричат: "Начните хот-доги здесь! Получите ваш хот-доги!"
