Examples:
> Here's Droteo.
> This old man is bothering the group.
> He's young and unexperienced (lit. his buttocks are covered with sores) and doesn't know anything.
> That king had no bracelet, neither ornament.
> Ulang always mismanages her finances; she is always short when there is a need for her.
Proverbs:
> That man is like a duck.
The native duck, debar, doesn't fly very well, or high like other birds, it doesn't walk or run like some animals, it can't sing well, and it doesn't swim as well as a fish. But it can do all these things. Applied to a person who seemingly can do many different things, none of them expertly. "Jack of all trades."
More Examples:
> This girl complains too much.
> Father, how do we de scale this monstrous wrasse fish?
> This old man stayed stiff and contorted as he died.
> Awe, your baby looks so healthy.
> This person's height is average.
