- Fady_(taboo) abstract "Fady, in Malagasy culture, refers to a wide range of cultural prohibitions or taboos. People, places, actions or object may be the subject of fady, which vary by region within Madagascar. The taboos are believed to be enforced by supernatural powers, and are particularly connected with Malagasy ancestor worship. Although some are held nationwide, others may be particular to regions, villages or even individual families. Fady are an integral part of Malagasy identity and play an important part in community and identity formation.Examples of commonly held fady are a taboo on pointing at tombs; that pregnant women should not eat eels, and that newborn babies must not be called \"ugly\" by onlookers. New fady are constantly created through experiences. When a new initiative or business is started, a ritual offering (joro) must be made to prove that it is not fady. Those who break fady (ota fady in the infinitive) are shunned for being unclean (maloto) and for endangering the community's spiritual balance, regardless of whether the infraction was deliberate or not. Foreigners in Madagascar are also advised to respect local fady and alter their behavior to take account of them.Fady also form an important influence in other aspects of Malagasy culture. The Malagasy for \"please\" or \"excuse me\" is azafady, literally translating as \"may it not be fady to me\".Some writers have argued that fady are conceptually similar to unwritten social taboos in western culture, where disregard can lead to the violator being shunned by the community.".
