Proverbs:
> The woman is the outrigger for the male.
An unmarried man has no outrigger; taking a wife is a stabilizing process for a man in the sense that the outrigger stabilizes the canoe. One source, a Palauan woman, has suggested the meaning that a man is as capable as the woman who backs him up.
> Small, but a man
One physically small, or a child, who does the work of a strong man.
> A male child, though small, is yet like a small barracuda that braces against the flowing stream.
The small barracuda (mersaod, a small ai) can be seen bracing, without apparent motion, against the stream, usually where fresh water flows into the lagoon, or where tide water runs off the reef, until suddenly it dashes into the stream to grab a small fish. Then it retreats once more to its place of watchfulness. This watchful, quiet, reserved, almost crafty approach to life is much admired, and parents will encourage their male children with this saying.
More Examples:
> The boys were spoiled.
> Consensual intercourse between a man and a woman to proclaim their affection for each other.
> You have a boy or a girl.
> My boyfriend lives in Koror.
> These uncooked baskets of taro had to be carried by the young men to the boat at the channel to go on the trip.
