come le cose rare
Ci sono mestieri che ieri come oggi non sono mai mutati e si tramandano come le cose rare.
Sono mestieri ma anche stili di vita che prendono forma in quella Sicilia interna, affascinante e poco conosciuta.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Thai men are trained in this sport right from their childhood and it is a skill that is passed on from generations, like a precious legacy, along with the other extolled Thai virtues of courtesy, discipline and the sporting spirit.

: also, these are skills that are being passed down father to son (if we can still say that), so they are truly a legacy.
